    I put chopped lettuce in bowl , then the cottage cheese, and top with either pineapple tidbits or lite drained fruit cocktail.

    I like a couple tablespoons on a salad because it adds a creamy element (and is healthier than creamy dressing) or mixed with melon or berries.

    Cottage cheese freaks me out (especially when its on my bum and things :laugh: ) but I am interested in incorporating it into my foods.

    Will stalk this post again at a later time for some ideas.

    I somtimes use it in place of butter,

    Its nice on crackers or rice cakes with a slice of tomatoe or gerkin or chives

    also like to make vegybake layerd partly boiled veg , cottage cheese in between can put Lasagne sheets in it to0
    and make a low fat white sauce pour it over and bake.or just put some Light cream instead of white sauce.

    nice as a dolop on top of pumpkin soup or french oinon soup too

    I do a tip I found on here awhile ago, put it on toast with pineapple, cinnamon and brown sugar, and put under the grill (I think americans call it the broiler?) until bubbling. For a savoury version I do the same with tomato, salt, pepper and basil.

    On toast w pepper and fresh slices of tomato. Makes for a nice sandwich actually--but don't pack it in your lunch that way, it will soggy up the bread. Wait until you are ready to eat it.
    I also LOVE cottage cheese with a little bit of yogurt. Adds texture, protein, and makes for lower sugar snack.
    Amazing w a dallop on sliced cucumbers drizzled w Catalina or French dressing.

    I'm getting some great ideas from this thread, cottage cheese is a staple in my diet since it's low-cal and high in protein. here's the ways I eat it:

    Mixed with crushed fire roasted tomato Triscuits(soooo good, it reminds me of pizza, I think everyone should try this)

    Sliced tomato and/or cucumber with salt and pepper

    Mixed with trail mix, (usually Ann's house brand-Almonds, Cranberries, Sunflower seeds, soy nuts)
