I first came up with this recipe when I was looking for a healthy and satisfying way to start my day. I had been eating the same old oatmeal and yogurt for breakfast for years, and I was getting bored. I wanted something that was quick and easy to make, but that was also packed with nutrients. One day, I was browsing through the farmers market and I saw some beautiful fresh peaches. I bought a few peaches and took them home, and I decided to experiment with making a smoothie. I added some cottage cheese, almond milk, Greek yogurt, honey, and cinnamon to the peaches, and I blended it all together. The result was a delicious and refreshing smoothie that was perfect for breakfast. I've been making this smoothie ever since, and it's become one of my favorite recipes.
