Cottage Cheese Cheese Cake

350g Low fat cottage cheese
150ml Light natural yoghurt
2 tbsp sugar/sweetener (optional)
zest of one lemon (20g)
juice of one lemon (80ml)
2 egg whites (60g)
2 tbsp gelatine
Method
Using a stick blender, blend the cottage cheese until smooth
Add the sugar (optional), lemon juice, lemon zest and yoghurt to the cottage cheese
In a separate container mix the egg whites until stiff
Mix the gelatine with 1/2 cup boilng water and add to the cheese mixture
Fold the egg whites into the cheese mixture
Pour into a 7" cake tin and refrigerate until set.
Notes
Apparently you can add a few scoops of protein powder if you want to up the protein content, or ommit the lemon rind and zest and use a flavoured powder if you want to change the flavour.
