    This sounds gross, but don't knock it until you try it. My family uses it as dip for nacho doritos. I've tried it with lower calorie chips and it still tastes pretty good. Just be careful not to eat too many chips with it.

    I love whole wheat toast with cottage cheese and medium-spicy fresh salsa with extra cilantro.

    It is SO NOT gross! I love it with Pringles too... Any flavor! Unfortunatly, not the best snack for me because I could eat the whole tube of chips!

    That's why I always measure out the chips before I start eating. If I don't I will eat half the bag. Then I gain weight from my "healthy" snack. Which is ridiculous, and I should have eaten 4 rice crispy treats, or half a cheesecake if I was going to overeat!:laugh:

    Buy some apple butter, or sugar-free jelly.

    Both are great mixed in to cottage cheese. Its what I have for breakfast every day :)

    MmMm..I LOVE apple butter! But it's high in cals..What brand do you use??

    There is a local canning company in PA that makes it with no sugar added. Its approximately 40 cals for a tablespoon. You can also try fruit butters brand apple butter, which is 29 cals for a tablespoon.

    Oh my goodness, I'm so excited! I'm going out to get that today! Wooo! Thank you! :bigsmile:

    I actually mixed mine with cracked pepper and a tablespoon of Hormel real bacon bits--probably a little overboard with the salt, but oh so yummy!!

    Try mixing a dash of Ranch powder to it- or seasonings, like Mrs. Dash, onion powder, etc. Various ones gives CC a nice flavor.

    Most of the replies sugguset something sweet. Try it with diced tomatoes, Frank's Red Hot sauce, or Mrs. Dash for a savory twist.

    I enjoy mine with fruit. any kind , berries work well and a dash of cinammon. I also eat, ...now please don't get grossed out , i...n my oatmeal. I cook the oatmeal, add about 1/4 cup cottage cheese and some cinammon. It makes the cereal creamy, and you don't have to add milk!!

    I love to put it on top of my baked potatoes. When my dad had heart problems that is what they told him to do it so we started eating it that way and now my kids and my husband love it that way too. Very good!!!

    Everyday for a snack at work I have a fresh sliced peach with 1/2 cup cottage cheese and mix in one packet of splenda. I look forward to it everyday. :smile:

    I eat this twice per day:

    1-cup of cottage cheese
    2 tablespoons natural peanut butter
    60g of fresh blueberries
    40g of fresh raspberries
    1/4 cup (or so) of Sugar-free maple syrup.

    Sometimes I add 1/2-cup of old fashioned oats.

    This is a GREAT snack and an awesome pre-bed meal. So tasty!!:love:
