Cottage Cheese Ice Cream

This high protein cottage cheese ice cream is the smoothest, creamiest, most delightful treat for the summer. With just a few ingredients, it is healthy, balanced, and easy to make! Who would have thought cottage cheese would become popular again? Just like Greek yogurt, it has a thick, creamy texture and can be enjoyed sweet or savory. In addition, it’s also high in protein, making it the perfect secret ingredient for my homemade protein ice cream. Since it is blended, there are no curds!
