Whether for breakfast, dessert or snack-time, these little, no-bake cheesecakes are pleasingly delicious, creamy and protein packed. They all starts with one of my favorite ingredients, blended cottage cheese. A cottage cheese cup is such a powerhouse food providing lots of protein and calcium for a relatively low-calorie expenditure. I love easy cottage cheese recipes.
Cottage cheese makes the perfect base for these healthy cheesecakes that are portioned up in single-serve size. Even if you think you don’t like cottage cheese, you’ll change your mind – once the curds are blended up smooth, it becomes an amazing creaming filling for cheesecake creations (and also cottage cheese bowls, smoothies, savory pasta dishes, baked recipes and more). When I get home from the store, I usually blend mine up in a smaller blender (like this one) and keep on hand in the fridge for whatever use I have in mind!
Also, it’s a good idea to have smaller mason jars, mugs, ramekins or bowls – around 10-14 ounces to portion out the no-bake cheesecakes before setting in the fridge! ENJOY!
