Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk cold
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder whey or plant-based
  • 1/2 cup cottage cheese low-fat
  • 1/4 cup mozzarella cheese part-skim, shredded
  • 1/4 cup tomato sauce no added sugar
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/4 tsp dried basil
  • 1 tsp nutritional yeast for cheesy flavor
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 cup ice cubes

Notes

For best results, use cold ingredients straight from the refrigerator. The cottage cheese provides a creamy texture similar to ricotta in a calzone. You can substitute Greek yogurt for cottage cheese for a tangier flavor. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours - shake well before drinking as separation may occur.
