Scale
  • 1 cup cottage cheese (low fat or full fat)

  1. Place the cottage cheese and pumpkin puree into a blender or food processor.
  2. Add the scoop of vanilla protein powder and the pumpkin pie spice to the mixture.

  6. Sprinkle the crushed graham crackers or chopped pecans on top for a delightful crunch.
