I like it with pineapple or pears, I also like to sprinkle bacon bits and chives on it , I also put it ontop of tomatoes. Thanks for sharing I am going to have to try some of these ideas0

cottage cheese is a staple - love it and eat it all the time - great source of protein - I get Friendship 1% No Salt Added because the sodium can be high in the regular kinds if you watch that0

Sprinkled with bacon salt on Ritz crackers.0

I cottage cheese!! I add a pinch of salt and black pepper, yummy!!!!0

I almost never have it with anything sweet because I just skip to the dark chocolate instead but BLUEBERRIES!? YUM! I'm gonna try that asap!I treat it like sour cream. I treat sour cream like cheese. I treat cheese like salt. I salt anything that's not sweet. You get the idea... LOL I Cottage Cheese!
This made me LOL! I like mine with pineapples or blueberries, or plain...
YUM is an understatement! It is delish!!!!0 -

deffinitly w/ strawberries!
and i'll use it on my salads instead of dressing.
oh how i like youre ticker! lol0 -
the thought of it always creeped me out? Can you compare the taste to anything?
so I'm not the only one!!
I've actually "wished" that I could eat it, my husband LOVES the stuff.... I can't get past the fact that it is sour milk!! I hate the taste and smell of white milk... can't drink it unless its in cereal!!
I feel like I'm missing out on something!! :sad:0 -
a cup of cottage cheese with 1/3 cup of craisins or dried blueberries stirred in is a 310 calorie delight for breakfast, and it packs a wonderful protein punch that keeps me full for-EVER!0

cheese is curdled milk, too....we eat "rotten" foods all the time: cheese, yogurt, cottage cheese, sour cream, wine, beer...the list goes on LOL0 -

I never used to be able to stomach it, but I forced myself to keep trying it. I started eating it mixed with canned fruit cocktail (in juice) to start, and then once I got used to the texture, I switched it to various fresh fruits, or mixed with yogurt and all bran buds. I can even eat it plain with pepper and the all bran buds now.0 -

I will have to look around and see if I can find a no salt variety here in Alberta, Canada. The sodium content is my only complaint!0 -
I use it as salad dressing! Toss 1/2 cup on top of a green salad with cucumbers and tomatoes...yummmy!0
-
Tomatoes and ground black pepper wrapped in lettuce
Halved Grapes
Plain
My gramma used to eat it with canned peaches- I couldn't get past the texture.0 -

it always grossed me out.... i mean i dont mind the taste of the curds (very mild really adaptable to anything, doesn't really add taste to anything) it's the mush that surrounds the curds that always got me.... i am a texture person...
so use it in lasagna was fine but stick a spoon in my mouth... ewww no way...
so i started using it like sour cream, mix it with a lil bit of salsa and used it with my corn chips to get used to it.
i often put it in frittatas and eggy things.
and i can, now, put a forkful in my mouth.... how ever i have not yet gotten to the point where i can mix it with something sweet.0 -
Friendship brand comes whipped, so is a nicer texture. I try to mimic generic brands by beating and crushing hard with a fork.
I like to let mine reach room temperature before eating.
I put it on toast a lot. With pepper and tomato on pumpernickel bread. With splenda on a raisin bagel or blueberry pancakes. With orange marmalade on Italian bread.
I want to try blending some into lime jello, but haven't had the time to experiment.
It's such a good protein source. 1/4 cup fat free counts as one ex lean protein exchange. My MD pushes a high protein diet with me. I'd struggle to fit in her protein requirements without cottage cheese. It's effortless for me to trade 2 proteins for a starch, with cottage cheese.0 -
Cottage cheese YUMMY!!
I eat it on baked potatoes.
I use it like dip for corn chips.
I will eat it on anything NOT sweet. I do not like it mixed with sweet.
My favorite way to eat it BEFORE MFP was on top of biscuits and gravy. I don't eat biscuits nor gravy now
My only complaint is how much sodium is in it, even the 1% skimmed milk kind. So I limit how much and when I eat it.0 -
mixed with peanut butter and cereal (usually Kashi Honey Sunshine).
if I can afford it I substitute pb2 for the real stuff.
Have a 1/2 cup mixed with cinnamon before bed everynight.0
