Thick, creamy, sweet and zesty cottage cheese mousse! Made with just a handful of ingredients, and topped with my favorite homemade protein whipped cream, and some freeze dried blueberries for a little crunch!
I used Just Ingredients Lemon Birthday Cake protein powder here (yes vanilla will work too) and the flavor was unbelievable! Use code colleenF10 to save sitewide on my favorite clean ingredient and nourishing protein powders!
