Super Summer Foods

Summer brings with it an explosion of food sensations. Mouth-watering strawberries, crispy sweet corn, juicy peaches — your taste buds tingle just thinking about them.

Enjoying meals made with fresh vegetables and fruit is one of summer's greatest pleasures. But, hanging out in the kitchen during the lazy hazy days of summer is not a lot of fun. Beat the heat of summer with simple, no-cook meals combining fresh vegetables or fruit with cottage cheese.

A Powerful Combination


Low on fuss, big on nutrition, meals and snacks made with Nordica® Single Serve Cottage Cheese mixed with vegetables or fruit pack a powerful punch:

  • Loaded with health-boosting antioxidants (cell protectors) and phytochemicals (active plant compounds), fresh-from-the-garden vegetables and fruits are considered "super" foods.
  • Packed with the protein, as well as prebiotic fibre and probiotics to keep your digestive system happy, Nordica® Single Serve Cottage Cheese gives you the energy you need to get through a busy day.
Put them together and you've got a super summer taste sensation that can boost your nutritional health.
