Cottage Cheese & Granola with Sea Buckthorn Oil
Sometimes the simplest ideas create the most delightful flavours. This 2-minute bowl combines creamy cottage cheese, crunchy granola, a touch of honey and a teaspoon of Natura Harmony Sea Buckthorn Oil, a 100% unrefined pure oil that we cold-press from the whole fruit, both pulp and seeds, to keep its natural colour and flavour. Balanced, bright and quick to put together.

Why Sea Buckthorn Oil Works Here
Sea buckthorn oil is cold-pressed and unrefined. Pressing both the seeds and the fruit preserves natural colour, aroma and flavour while keeping the oil 100% pure. Its lively, gently tart profile complements the creaminess of cottage cheese and the sweetness of honey.
