Ingredients

Cottage cheese150 g
Strawberries150 g
Frozen works and makes it colder and thicker. Fresh in June tastes better.
Skimmed milk150 ml
Vanilla extractA few drops
Granulated sweetenerTo taste
IceA handful

Method

Blend the cottage cheese and milk on their own first for twenty seconds. The curds disappear completely and it turns into a thin cream.
Add the strawberries, vanilla and sweetener and blend for another twenty seconds.
Taste. Strawberries vary a lot in sweetness and the cottage cheese is salty, so it may want a little more sweetener than you expect.

Worth knowing

Cottage cheese blended is smoother than yogurt and has more protein per calorie than any drinking yogurt. Nobody tasting this would guess what is in it.
Skimmed milk at 35 kcal per 100 ml keeps the whole glass light. Whole milk adds about 45 kcal and a rounder taste.
