    How about vegan cheese or cashew cheese?

    Would this save calories? I eat vegan cheese and the calorie counts typically are pretty close to what I would expect for the same amount of dairy-based cheese.

    I use crumbly cottage cheese (low fat or fat free) a lot. Also for baking - made an asparagus tart with it tonight and worked out very well.

    Actually if you make it yourself like ricotta, but dryer, and add a lot salt, this works pretty well.
