Ingredients
  

2 cups cottage cheese (low-fat or full-fat)

1 cup diced fresh pineapple

1 cup sliced strawberries

1 cup diced kiwi

1 cup blueberries

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (adjust based on sweetness preference)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 tablespoon chopped mint leaves (for garnish)

A pinch of cinnamon (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Fruits: Wash all the fruits thoroughly. Cut the pineapple, strawberries, and kiwi into bite-sized pieces and place them in a large mixing bowl along with the blueberries.

    Mix the Dressing: In a separate small bowl, combine the cottage cheese with honey (or maple syrup) and vanilla extract. Stir until well mixed and creamy.

      Combine: Pour the cottage cheese mixture over the mixed fruits in the large bowl. Gently fold the mixture until the fruits are evenly coated with the cottage cheese.

        Taste and Adjust: Taste the salad and add more honey if you prefer it sweeter. If using, sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon for an extra flavor kick.

          Garnish: Transfer the salad into a serving bowl or individual cups and garnish with chopped mint leaves on top.

            Chill and Serve: For the best taste, let the salad chill in the fridge for about 30 minutes before serving. Enjoy your refreshing Cottage Cheese and Fruit Salad!
