Anyone else love cheesecake?  
Clean Cottage Cheesecakes with Strawberry Topping
It's my weakness (among MANY others).  So after seeing some cheesecakes made with cottage cheese, I just had to give it a try.
After searching for something low calorie, high protein and clean, I wasn't having much luck.

Ergo my own take on the cottage cheese cheesecake.  Plus these are personal size, making for the perfect little snack under 100 calories!
Crust:
1 cup almond flour
2 Tbsp butter, melted
1-1 1/2 tsp stevia (or preferred sweetener)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Mix ingredients in a small bowl.  Press into cupcake liners and bake for 10 min.  Let cool.
Cheesecake:
3/4 cup low fat/nonfat cottage cheese
2/3 cup low fat/nonfat greek yogurt (plain, lemon or vanilla works best)
1 Tbsp oat flour
2 Tbsp pure maple syrup
1/4 tsp salt
4 egg whites or 2 whole eggs
juice from 1/2 lemon (omit if you are using lemon flavoured yogurt)
Place all of the ingredients except eggs into blender.  Blend until combined.  Add eggs and blend for a second or two.  Pour batter into prepared crusts.
Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 min.
Top with fresh strawberries or strawberry topping.
Strawberry Topping:
2 cup whole strawberries
1 Tbsp maple syrup or agave syrup
Blend strawberries with syrup until smooth.  Top your cheesecake and enjoy.
