    I cut up fresh garden tomatoes, cucumbers, and a little sweet onion (optional). I add 1/2 c. Cottage cheese and salt and pepper. In the summer I eat this often for a meal when we have so many fresh garden tomatoes and cucumbers.

    I didn't have time to read all the replies so if this is a repeat, sorry. I put a dash of cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice and splenda in mine! :wink:

    I think it can go with pretty much anything. I put some in a baked potato the other night instead of the usual sour cream and butter, and I loved it. Also I've been mixing it in with tuna.

    Oh the baked potato is a great idea! I like to add a scoop to half an avacado ..Yum!

    Tabasco, picante sauce, green chiles or just regular salsa..... to spice it up. Pair it up with some Pita chips, or bake your own tortilla chips for a chip and dip explosion!

    After I read this all I wanted was cottage cheese, but Im at work and I usually just have it plain. Well I looke din my mini fridge to see what I had and there was some Mezzetta Sun Dried tomato (with cilantro, lime and jalapeno) sandwhich spread.

    I put 1.5 tbsp in a cup of CC. OMG SOOOOOO Good, my co worker came and wanted some too. It was really really delicious.

    I buy cans of sugar free sliced pears and peaches and put a few in with the cottage cheese

    I love cottage cheese with fruit, or cherry tomatoes, or a little bit of honey.

    It is also good with pepper and a cherry tomato on an oatcake.

    Poach 1 small apple and 1 pear (or do it like me and just nuke if) with plenty of cinnamon...it gets all gooey
    Add in 3/4 - 1 cup of low fat cottage cheese
    1 TBSP chopped walnuts

    for a low cal breakfast

    I love cottage cheese on top of spinach with some almonds, red grapes, and dried cranberries.

    I like it mixed in with a salad or to dip some low fat crackers or chips in.. I can't do cottage cheese with sweet stuff or fruit, grosses me out. =)

    Love cottage cheese and have it almost every day for lunch with fresh fruit and cinnamon. I have also tried it with salsa and as a replacement for ricotta. I can't wait to try some of these new ideas :))
