    I make this meal all the time: Egg noodles and cottage cheese. Add a little salt. Done. Don't knock it till you've tried it.

    I crush/grind allspice berries (you could add pre-ground) into a new pot and let it flavour it til I'm ready to use it. - I always add a little salt when I serve it because I like salty sweet. Before that - I used slice fresh on-the-vine tomatoes and topped with loads of freshly ground black pepper and salt. Nice on crunchy ryvita.

    I like to sprinkle it with some dried dill and scoop it out with reduced fat Wheat Thins.
    I also like to add some cinnamon and chopped apples, topped with crushed pineapple or mandarin oranges.
    For lunch, sometimes I mix in some grated Parmesan, garlic powder, Lawry's, and black pepper and use it as topping on a baked potato. Super filling!!
    I have a relative that likes to drizzle Catalina dressing on hers.

    Cottage cheese quiche

    1 cup 1% cottage cheese
    6-9 tablespoons egg whites
    2 tablespoons of hormel bacon bits
    spinach

    Mix, bake at 325 for 30-40 minutes.

    Makes 2 healthy portions, each portion has 24-26 grams of protein. I make it the night before and eat it for breakfast after my workout.

    Chopped up tomatoes through the cottage cheese is so good.

    I don't like mixing peanut butter with it.

    But that's it. I love it with fruit or salsa

    Daisy imo is the best

    I mostly eat non fat cottage cheese plain.

    But, when I want a snack, sometimes, I add either peaches (lite syrup), or fruit cocktail(lite syrup).

    I have nothing new to add, but I have definitely gleaned several ideas here, thank you! I've usually just enjoyed it plain or with peaches, which I love, but I also love variety so I'm loving all the versatility on this thread. Thanks again! :wink:

    Because I despise cottage cheese, a friend gave me these suggestions and they are actually delicious....
    with a little sugar free jello powder (i like lemon, lime, strawberry but im sure they are all good)
    or
    with sugar free/fat free cheesecake pudding mix
    or
    with brown sugar
    may sound nasty, thats what I thought but they were pretty darn good and the only way I eat it now :)

    I love cottage cheese.... but I have never in my life heard of eating it with nuts or even peanut butter.... I have added veggies and friut to it, I have added it to potatoes and chilli, I have eaten it plain, used it on a salad instead of dressing.... But eating it with nuts just seems gross... but now I am going to have to go buy some just so I can try it with nuts! HA who knew!

    Commenting just to have this thread saved. I just bought the friendlies brand. I usually love cottage cheese, and noticed the "no salt added" label, so I picked it up. Now I need to find things to combine it with, because it is too bland and dry. How the heck is cottage cheese dry? Ugh.

    I like to put it on pasta! I throw a 1/4 cup of cottage cheese in the blender with a tablespoon or two of pesto (I've also used buffalo sauce) and a couple spoonfuls of the pasta water, blend until smooth and pour it over the pasta. I usually throw some broccoli in the mix too. It reminds me of alfredo sauce. So good!
