Ironically this recipe was inspired by a pin on Pinterest. But once I clicked the link the picture was not what I thought it was! I decided I needed to create a recipe for what I had imagined it was, because it sounded so yum! And was a pretty little snack!

A great addition to this recipe would be a cherry on top, but alas I have no cherries. But I may go buy some so I can try it out.

I do not add the ginger straight into the cottage cheese mixture because I serve this to my kids and they would not eat it with the ginger. If you don’t have kids or your kids are not as picky as mine add it to the mixture.

    Pepper you are so creative! This is simply awesome! i have had some cottage cheese with small pineapple chunks in there but this just seems more fun! Even without any sweetener I find the cottage cheese with some pineapple chunks is quite palatable. Thanks for the inspiration pepper.
