new cottage cheese ideas?

icimani

I like cottage cheese - it's relatively low in calories and it's high in protein, and I do like the taste. But I'm getting bored with the taste of just plain cottage cheese. I mix it with fruit a lot and that's good. Any other ideas out there?

One thing I did discover lately is mixing in a tablespoon of apple butter or pumpkin butter to a serving of cottage cheese. Yummy! And it may just cure my craving for ice cream!

I love it in my oatmeal. I add one of the Breakstone 2% containers and it is yummy. Sometimes I put it in the microwave to heat it a little since the cottage cheese cools the oatmeal.

Cinnamon and splenda, put it in my pancake mix with oats, vanilla, egg whites, baking powder, and cinnamon. protein powder, sf jello mixes, make ice cream. My absolute favorite is mixing it in with my protein shakes. 1 scoop of protein powder, 1 c of almond milk, 2 tbsp of sf cheesecake pudding mix, !/2 frozen fruit, kale and chia seeds. Blend it up and its just like a milkshake.

I put some cottage cheese in a blender and make it the consistency of sour cream, add a little dry ranch seasoning and it's a great veggie dip. Plus you can add a little fat free milk to that mixture and its a low cal, high protein dressing for salads.

Wow so many ideas but i cant get away from liking it plain with saltine crackers.

This one may already be in this list. Each morning I toast one slice of 16 grain bread @110 calories, then add cottage cheese, 2 or 3 tbs. Sprinkle with sweetener of choice and cinnamon. That's my breakfast and I love it. It reminds me of a cheese danish.

Either with sunflower seeds, or salsa. Both a total yum!
