Strawberry Cheesecake Granola Bowl

I love cheesecake so if I can enjoy a healthier version in a bowl with fruit and granola, I’m all for it.

If you’re on TikTok you may be aware of this viral recipe concept where you use cottage cheese and blend it into a high protein “cheesecake”. Of course I was skeptical at first, but that didn’t keep me from trying it.

The best part is you can customize the flavor buy using any fruit jam you have on hand. Blueberry, raspberry or rhubarb jam (to name a few) can be substituted for strawberry. You can also switch up the fruits! For example, you could swap in peaches or nectarines, apricots or plums. Really it’s a choose your own adventure sort of thing.
