Ingredients

1/2 C orange juice1/2 C low fat cottage cheese1 frozen banana1 C frozen strawberries (any fruit will do)

Directions

Add all ingredients to a blender and puree until smooth. Add more juice or water to get desired consistency. Experiment with different fruits! Raspberries, blueberries, and peaches all work well. The cottage cheese is a great source of protein and makes the smoothie nice and thick. This is my favorite way to refuel after a long workout.

It's the first time i've made a smoothie and it is delicious. not too sweet or anything.
my bf was weary of it because of the cottage cheese, but i'm glad theres more uses for the cottage cheese. - 7/9/09

This was good, but for once I didn't have low sodium cottage cheese in the house, and I found it made the smoothie a little salty and had to add a bunch of milk to make it palatable. Next time I'll use low sodium cottage cheese. - 5/16/11

This looks like a strawberry ice cream shake and has a really similar texture to it. Tastes really good, and is not very sweet (which I like) - 4/9/11

Based on this, I'm assuming it works just as well to make a fruit smoothie with cottage cheese instead of yogurt? - 11/2/16
