    This might not mean much as i'm british but I adore the Tesco light choices cottage cheese with pineapple...I could just eat the whole tub! It's good on wholegrain ryvitas, or on a baked sweet potato....mmm I wish I had some in the fridge right now!

    Me too, love the pinapple one on potatoes! Sainsburys had it on offer 2 x 300g tubs for £1.20 last week; not sure if that's still on...

    Have never even thought of having cottage cheese with anything sweet. Mind you I did try to make a low-fat cheesecake with it, but prefer using quark or ricotta as those don't have lumps in.

    I like to eat mine on a crispbread with some seeds sprinkled on top. Although I made a pasta bake using it instead of a white sauce and it was equally delicious, and much more filling.

    I don't care for cottage cheese by itself...however I was out of greek yogurt about two weeks ago now for my smoothie and used 1/4 cup low fat cottage cheese in it instead. LOVE IT. HIgh in protein and it cuts down the sweetness of the smoothie a bit.

    Who knew!

    I'm a CHEESE HATER but I do eat cc only b/c of the protein content. I can stomach 1/2 a cup as long as there is a 1/4 cup of pineapple to go with. I prefer fresh pineapple, more flavour less sugars.

    1) mixed into my oatmeal
    2) mixed into my scrambled eggs or frittata
    3) mixed with applesauce
    4) mixed with fresh fruit (blueberries, peaches, pears, banana slices)

    I love the sound of the lime juice & Splenda!

    One way I really like it is with Nature's Seasons sprinkled on it.

    someone above mentioned tuna and cottage cheese in a lettuce roll up. Add a Tablespoon of Cranberry sauce to that wrap-up and it is the best thing ever! It gets requested around here all the time - even by those not on a diet!

    Can't do cottage cheese AT ALL.. it's a texture thing. Instead I do yogurt, usually greek style.

    I hate cottage cheese, so I hide it in things like oatmeal, or sugar free pudding, or I use it for protein pancakes.

    Wow I really thought the only way to eat cc was with apple butter. Lots of new things to try.

    I have mine for breakfast most days with cut up fruit and a light yogurt! My favorite combo is peaches and a vanilla yogurt.

    Cottage Cheese lovers: If you haven't tried Friendship 1% WHIPPED cottage cheese yet, you don't know what you're missing! It is the BEST!

    My favorite ways to eat it are with applesauce and cinnamon (tastes like apple pie), with canned pumpkin and pumpkin pie spice (tastes like apple pie) or with cashew or almond butter...yum...it is truly one of my favorite snacks and almost feels like a dessert!

    1/2 cup for 90 calories and 16 grams of protein isn't so bad of a thing either!

    I love low fat chive and onion cottage cheese and I eat it with garlic melba toast. Yum!

    I eat mine with pineapples, normally layerd on a Ryvita :D
