How do you eat your cottage cheese?

I buy the small curd (Knudsens). It has a texture similar to ricotta cheese. Then I toss in small frozen fruit like blueberries, raspberries, etc. Yum. Just like a desert!0

Try blending it up and using it on Baked Potatoes and you can also add a packet of ranch dressing and use as a dip or salad dressing. Low Calorie and High Protein Salad Dressing. Hard to find.0

Also great with a scoop of Cottage Cheese and a Scoop of Tuna Fish rolled in a lettuce wrap. Very filling!0

I eat mine with splenda and cinnamon and sometimes applesauce. Or if I'm feeling especially in need of dessert, I'll heat up some apple slices in 1 pat of butter and add 1 tsp brown sugar and serve it warm over the cottage cheese.
I also like pineapple ~~ peach slices ~~ berries ~~ more-fruit jam ~~ honey and walnuts.
I never got used to eating savory versions but I know some people put cottage cheese on an English muffin with tomato slices, s&p and heat it up in the toaster oven.0 -
I cut grape tomatoes (cherub tomatoes) in half and then mix with the cottage cheese. Then add pepper. Yummy!0

ooo I never thought of using it as a dessert, i should have had it with my baked apples tonight :P
I have always lked mine in Jacket potatoes, on rice cakes or in wholemeal pitta. Sounds boring but I always buy the onion and chives one, bit of Tabasco. Sorted!0 -
I have mine in the morning with 1/2 cup plain yogurt, 1/2 cup cottage and 1/2 cup blueberries. The blueberries are frozen so I nuk them a bit and add Splenda and cinnamon. I love it. Cottage cheese is also good with oranges or bananas sliced up in it.0

I never season mine or add anything to it. I can only eat the 4% milkfat kind though. I like it on a bagel or english muffin instead of butter or jam though, or spread it on Triscuit or Ritz crackers.0

Two ways... one I love 100 calorie Breakstone Cottage Doubles with pineapple. The other, I like to put it on 1/2 of a toasted Thomas Bagel Thin (the whole bagel thin would be 110 cals).0

I can eat any way I love it!!!!!! but my favorite is with sliced tomatoes and lots of pepper!!!! yum oh how I want some now !!!! thanks0

Pepper and chives! I can't stand it with fruit or sweet stuff for some reason.0

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!0

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.0 -
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.0

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!0 -
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.0

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)0 -
Salt, pepper and a little bit of curry powder.0
