Protein-Packed Cottage Cheese Cookie “Dough”

Cottage cheese, protein chocolate chip and cookie dough

By Amguy

I love easy, simple recipes, especially when working night shifts in the restaurant. That is why I’ve incorporated more high-protein dishes that are easy to grab and quick to make.

Cottage cheese is straightforward to prepare and pairs beautifully with both sweet and savoury additions, making it a versatile ingredient in your favourite meals.

It offers a range of health benefits:

  1. High in Protein: Great for muscle repair, energy, and keeping you full longer.

  2. Rich in Calcium: Supports strong bones and teeth.

  3. Low in Calories: Ideal for balanced diets or those looking to maintain or lose weight.

  4. Probiotic-Friendly (if using cultured versions): Can support healthy digestion.

  5. Versatile: Easily customized with fruits, vegetables, herbs, or spices.
