Benefits of Each Ingredient

Cottage Cheese

Cottage cheese is naturally high in protein, supporting muscle maintenance, fullness, and stable energy levels. It also provides calcium and B vitamins, which are important for bone health and metabolism.

Whole Milk

Whole milk adds creaminess while contributing healthy fats, calcium, and fat-soluble vitamins. These fats help improve satiety and support nutrient absorption.

Chia Seeds

Chia seeds are rich in fibre, omega-3 fatty acids, and plant-based protein. They support digestion, heart health, and help keep blood sugar levels stable.

Honey

Honey provides natural sweetness along with antioxidants and trace minerals. It offers a gentler energy boost compared to refined sugars and enhances flavour without overpowering the dish.

Vanilla Extract

Vanilla adds warmth and depth while enhancing sweetness naturally, helping reduce the need for additional sweeteners.

Blueberries

Blueberries are packed with antioxidants, particularly anthocyanins, which support brain health and help protect cells from oxidative stress. They also add freshness and natural sweetness.
