    This is exactly how I eat it too, and it's delish! It's my favorite snack ☺️

    I love the 4% Kroger brand. Has great flavor to it. I eat it plain or I love to mix it into some egg whites and 'scramble" it. I used to eat tuna mixed in and this thread reminded me of it. I'm going to try it tomorrow. Nobody in my house like cottage cheese except for me.

    I haven't used it in recipes but I like to eat it with:

    Capers
    Sunflower Seeds
    Dry Roasted Edamame
    Avocado
    Fresh Fruit
    Cucumbers and Dill

    Love Cottage Cheese with blueberries or strawberries or even raspberries. I put a packet of Splenda in the CC to sweeten it up a bit. I could eat my wt in it.

    That's not strange it is my favorite breakfast; I don't use the nuts but the cottage cheese with sweetner and cinnamon are excellent on whole grain toast. I call it my "cheese danish."

    I add it to my oatmeal after it's cooked, top with almonds, fruit and a drizzle of agave nectar....yum! Also blend in a mixer with pancake batter. I put it on toast and Marmite (it's a British thing!) Enjoy!

    EATS IT! EATS IT ALL!

    More seriously in high school (because I really loved cottage cheese actually and not so much that I was trying to lose weight since I was a skinny mini) I used to throw it on top of my salads with some black olives.. Just thinking about it I might have to do that for lunch XD

    Love it in my oatmeal. Also love it with canned mandarin oranges. Husband likes to eat it with sharp cheese shred, parmesan cheese, bacon bits and croutons. Also use it as a sub for ricotta cheese, but I also blend it first to make it more like the consistency of ricotta. Reminds me that I need to go buy some more!

    When you get a sweet tooth and want something sweet - you can try your cottage cheese with honey and cinnamon. It's not bad. I also make a chicken salad recipe with cottage cheese. Calls for a chicken breast (I used the can for convenience for lunch) mix with 1/4 cup of cottage cheese and 3 TBSP of dry ranch dressing. And then I add other spices as well.
    Hope this helps!

    Hork it down with the biggest spoon I can find.

    ...Is this some sort of trick question??


    It's also DELICIOUS mixed in omelettes and scrambles eggs. It sort of melts and gets gooey and makes the eggs oh-so creamy.

    Cottage cheese with diced avocado. Love it this way, but I add a ton of Sriracha to it for some spice.

    Or, Add sliced fruit and a little bit of honey or Agave

    I like to put some cottage cheese in a bowl, slice an apple and use the slices to scoop up the cottage cheese and eat together, the combination is so good! Can add some cinnamon and or nutmeg to it... a great snack! But not as low in calories as one would think.... enjoy! Trying is believing:)
