Method
 

Instructions:
  1. Step 1: Prepare the Cottage Cheese - Start by placing the cottage cheese in your blender or food processor. Blend until it reaches a smooth and creamy consistency. This usually takes about 1-2 minutes. You want it to be light and airy, so don’t rush this step!
  2. Step 2: Add the Sweet Elements - To the whipped cottage cheese, add a drizzle of honey and mix well. This will elevate the flavor and create a delightful sweetness that pairs beautifully with the fruits.
  3. Step 3: Assemble the Fruit Toppings - In a small bowl, combine the blueberries and raspberries. Gently toss them together and set aside. You can add a sprinkle of hemp hearts here for extra texture.
  4. Step 4: Prepare the Savory Mixture - In another bowl, mix together the chopped tomatoes, olive oil, minced garlic, and chopped basil. This mixture will provide a refreshing contrast to the whipped cottage cheese, balancing the sweetness from the fruits.
  5. Step 5: Plate Your Creation - In a serving bowl, spoon the whipped cottage cheese as a base. Then, layer on the tomato mixture, followed by the fresh berries. Drizzle some additional honey if desired for an extra touch of sweetness.
  6. Step 6: Add the Finishing Touches - Top your dish with a slice of smoked salmon, a sprinkle of chopped chives, and a dash of sesame seeds. Finish with a tablespoon of granola to give it a satisfying crunch.

Notes

  • Use fresh, smooth cottage cheese for the best texture.
  • Blend just until smooth to keep it light and airy.
  • A pinch of salt can enhance the flavors significantly.
  • Allow the savory mixture to sit for a few minutes to meld the flavors.
