Use at least 2% cottage cheese for an extra creamy texture. Use fresh lemon juice for the best flavor. Add a pinch of turmeric for a vibrant yellow color. Sweeten to taste, depending on the tartness of your lemon. Top with yogurt and crushed graham crackers for a cheesecake vibe. Store in the fridge up to 5 days.
