Lemon Cheesecake Jars
Why this is peri-perfect… Cottage cheese, Greek yoghurt and collagen give us a generous hit of protein to support muscle, metabolism and fullness, while the oat, almond and coconut crumble adds slow-release energy and healthy fats to keep you satisfied for hours. Bright lemon gives it that classic cheesecake flavour without being overly sweet, making it a breakfast, or afternoon snack you'll look forward to.
