Ingredients
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 1 cup berries blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, strawberries, sliced
- 1 cup grilled fruit peaches, pineapple, plums, citrus
- ¼ cup almonds sliced
- ¼ cup rolled oats
- 2 Tbsp raw honey optional
- 1 Tbsp coconut flakes
- 1 tsp chia seeds
Instructions
Grill fruit
- Pre-heat grill to 350-400°F
- Prepare the fruit: Wash and dry the fruit thoroughly. Remove any stems, pits, or seeds as needed. Cut larger fruits, such as pineapples or watermelon, into slices or wedges for easy grilling.
- Lightly spritz fruit with oil to keep it from sticking to grill grates and aid in caramelization.
- Place the fruit directly on the preheated grill grates. Cook for a few minutes on each side, rotating if necessary, until grill marks appear and the fruit becomes slightly tender. The cooking time will vary depending on the type and thickness of the fruit.
- Once the fruit is grilled to your desired level of caramelization and tenderness, carefully remove it from the grill using tongs or a spatula.
Assemble
- In a bowl, add cottage cheese, and top with the berries, grilled fruit, nuts, rolled oats, etc. and then drizzle with honey and serve.
Notes
Keep a close eye on the fruit as it grills. You want it to soften and caramelize, but avoid overcooking, as it can become mushy or lose its shape.
