Pineapple Cottage Cheese Smoothie
Servings: 1 serving
This pineapple cottage cheese smoothie is bright, creamy, and bursting with tropical flavor in every sip. Juicy pineapple and a hint of mango create a silky-smooth texture, while cottage cheese and protein powder make it rich and packed with protein.
Ingredients
- ½ cup cottage cheese
- 1 cup water
- ¼ cup mango frozen
- 1 ¼ cup pineapple frozen
- 1 serving protein powder
Instructions
- Blend cottage cheese, water, mango, and pineapple together on high speed until smooth.
- Add protein powder and blend on low to mix in.
Notes
- Add sweetener to taste: Pineapple is naturally sweet, but if you prefer a sweeter smoothie, add a small piece of banana, a drizzle of honey, or a splash of maple syrup.
- Consistency matters: For a thicker smoothie, use frozen pineapple or add a few ice cubes. For a thinner smoothie, add more milk or water.
- Protein powder tips: Stick to one scoop to avoid a chalky texture. Vanilla or unflavored protein works best to complement the tropical flavors.
- Prep ahead: If you're using fresh pineapple, you can check out my guide on how to cut pineapple. You can also prep the entire smoothie recipe ahead of time with my frozen meal prep smoothie packs.
