My norm canned mandarin oranges or pears. Looking for something different. Thanks for any ideas.

I like a spoonful of jam/jelly or berries and honey in mine !

Thanks. Good idea. Have some great fruit preserves.

I love sprinkling sunflower seeds on my cottage cheese!

orangegato

Lots of black pepper

concordancia

Green salsa. Bonus points if I have the option of blue corn tortilla chips, but just thought cottage cheese and salsa is good, too. I did have it with V8 today.

lynn_glenmont

today i added edamame and black pepper.

Old European recipe, just added a little soft butter and chopped canned anchovies, tasty on crackers like Crunchmaster Multigrain crackers.

sweet and spicy tuna & avocado

I like cut up tomatoes with some salt and pepper.

A bodybuilder thing: add in peanut/almond butter and almonds or cashews (looks gross, tastes fantastic)

I like to use Pineapple tidbits

Jelly for sweet. Tomatoes or salsa and salt and pepper for savory.

InForBacon

Spaghetti, like the whole thing, not just the noodles.

besaro

pepper and mustard. fresh peaches. both kinds of pickles

MissDeeDee78

Hot sauce for me, yum!

MonaLisaLianne

Nice ripe tomatoes with salt & pepper is my favorite! Pineapple is pretty darned good, too, if you're craving sweet.

RaeBeeBaby

Strawberries & blueberries.
Bananas & grapes.
Pineapple & raspberries.
Tomatoes & cucumbers with lots of black pepper.

I love cottage cheese! If I have leftover chili or spaghetti I will add a scoop on top. Yum!

So many interesting options. I would have never thought of chili or spaghetti. Hot sauce. I will have to try some of these. I usually eat it plain, man am I boring. haha

AngryViking1970

I like to add some preserves if I'm going sweet, or lots of cracked black pepper and eat it with crackers.

Haha. Some of these are truly appalling, but I guess I won't know until I try them. Canned pears or peaches only for me.

Someone posted a truly appalling sounding recipe on here not too long ago. She called it GLOP. Ground turkey, salsa and cottage cheese. I just worked up the courage to try it last night. Eaten hot, it's amazingly delicious. I never would have guessed in a million years. And man, what a wallop of protein!

I love cottage cheese. I like to add blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, banana slices, pineapple, apples, grapes, mandarine oranges, etc. Pretty much any fruit. Sometimes I'll add some chopped nuts like pecans. For a more savory option, I sometimes add avocado or guacamole. Not the prettiest looking, but I like the taste.

Applesauce for sweet.

Salsa or sauerkraut (weird, I know, but it's my skinny girl pierogi cheat) for savory.

My favorite is to use Quaker oats sea salt and black pepper rice cakes as "chips" and the cottage cheese as the dip.

sleekgirla

1/2C Canned no sugar added peaches, blackberries, raspberries, blueberries I find to be a great combo with cottage cheese:).

lporter229

Sliced canned beets or grape tomatoes and lots of cracked black pepper.

Fresh berries, usually. I do love it with pineapple the mostest! I've never been brave enough to try it savory.

Oddly enough, I tend to think of savory as the default mode for cottage cheese. I didn't learn to eat it with sweet things until I was an adult!

FYI - cottage cheese is recommended as a substitute for ricotta cheese if you can't find good ricotta in your area. It works wonders in lasagna or mixed into pasta.

OMG ! Never imagined I would see so many responses. Thanks to all ! Wrote them all down. I am set now.
