High Protein-Quinoa Cottage Cheese Pancake

This is one of my favorite meal recipes. It can be eaten for breakfast , snack, lunch or dinner. It is clean, easy to make, and very high in protein! Serve with a thin spread of natural almond or peanut butter (great for a treat). If you have a weight loss goal, I recommend using a low fat Greek yogurt as an alternative. It makes about 14 to 16 pancakes. Refrigerate leftover or freeze for another meal. Enjoy!!
