It's crazy how something that never seemed even vaguely appealing is now a staple in our kitchen! Helloooooo, cottage cheese!

How would you like a creamy and decadent peanut butter mousse for breakfast? Packed with protein and sweetened only with date syrup, Breakfast Cottage Cheese Peanut Butter Mousse feels like you're having dessert for breakfast - especially when topped with just a few peanut butter pretzels and chocolate chips. 


Breakfast Cottage Cheese Peanut Butter Mousse is super easy to make. You can whip it up in less than 5 minutes. It's best if it chills in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes before eating. Whip it up, make the bed, get dressed, and come back to breakfast. (Although, sometimes, I just can't wait).

What's so great about cottage cheese? 

Cottage cheese is:

  • high protein
  • low in calories
  • no added sugar
  • FERMENTED
  • has live and active cultures
  • excellent source of calcium and amino acids

I've only used good culture organic cottage cheese. I love the texture and the taste. It only has a handful of ingredients with no gums, preservatives, or fillers. You might have seen me mention it when making our favorite avocado toast
