    Love it with canned fruit cocktail.
    Or mixed with a soft boiled egg with waffles/pancakes/crepes.
    Mixed with sour cream and sauted onions with perogies.

    You already do my fav but no waffle. I like the jelly hot when I put it in the cottage cheese.

    I like to add it to my salads. it adds protein, flavor, and also makes for a creamier texture to any dressing you use.

    Fill up a kiddie pool with it and dive in, put some in a large zip lock bag, place inside a pinata and give somebody an awesome surprise, fill water balloons up with it and have a food fight. :)

    I love it plain or mixed with fruit, personally.

    OR!

    As part of my protein pancakes!

    1/3 C. cottage cheese
    1/3 C. rolled oats
    1 whole egg PLUS one egg white
    1/8 tsp. baking powder
    1/4 - 1/2 tsp cinnamon
    A few drops of vanilla extract

    Blend it all up (I use a magic bullet) until smooth, then cook as pancakes! Or stick the mix in a waffle iron. Super delicious topped with fruit, around 20-25g protein and 30-something carbs for the whole batch. Not bad for pancakes. =)

    For a sweet treat u can mix

    Fat free Cottage cheese w splenda & cinnamon( to taste)..then slice an apple and scoop it up w the apple OR
    ... add fresh fruit.. Strawberries & Blueberries OR
    ... sliced bananas
    I also sprinkle on some ground gloden flax seed, chia seeds, and sometimes dry oatmeal.. It's just delicious

    You can also add a scoop of muscle milk light (I like chocolate) and a little bit of Udo's oil (it's a healthy fat) stir together add a lil splenda if want sweeter.. it's pretty yummy

    Salty or spicy add CCheese to salsa w fresh chopped tomatoes and or skip the salsa just top w the tomatoes some avacado and a pinch of salt and pepper!! Bon Appetit:flowerforyou:

    Nope, it all gets blended into the batter and cooks up just like regular pancakes. It's very important to blend it until it's smooth though, otherwise you'll just have a weird, chunky, cold oatmeal. Blech.

    I only like it when I disguise it in things. I put it in my salads, protein shakes (can't taste it at all), or scrambled into my scrambled eggs (it makes them really fluffy!)
