    I like to replace my salad dressing with cottage cheese every now and then. It helps to cut some of the fat from creamy dressings and adds a ton of protein! I think it tastes great over raw spinach, personally.

    I also like to eat it with soft raw pears like d'anjou. Or poach a harder pear with some stevia and eat them for breakfast. You can get the texture of the softer fruit without it sitting in a tin with processed syrup. It's also really good to add a dash of cinnamon and some vanilla extract, on crackers, as veggie dip, inside crepes... you name it!

    Black pepper and peanut butter. Get a little peanut butter each time you dip the spoon. It's an awesome late night calorie filler.

    If you have a food processor or blender you can put the cottage cheese in there. Puree it til it becomes the consistency of yogurt. Then you can use this like yogurt and make a lower calorie parfait. Add fresh fruit, nuts and sweeten with honey, agave nectar or artificial sweetener.

    After you puree it you can also make pancakes with it. Just add some flour, an egg, and sweeten it. Play with the measurements depending on the consistency of pancake you like. Serve it with macerated fruit (adding a lil sugar & if you like lemon zest/juice to sliced fruit. Let it sit for a couple of minutes so the natural juices come out).

    Enjoy!

    I like to add a tablespoon of reduced sugar jam (strawberry usually) and some crushed graham crackers. YUM! Dessert! I also use it in protein pancakes. My kid inhales 6 of them every time I make them!

    The addition of graham crackers sounds tasty!

    After watching my dad's puppies rolling around in a plate of it, I can't it eat. He used CC to wean the puppies from their mommy.... Cute and disgusting at the same time.

    A sprinkle of pepper and a spoon is all I need. Or, I like to put a dollop in my chili. Add some calcium to the protein and fiber I'm getting.

    Usually just plain. I have eaten on baked potatoes or with something else for breakfast or lunch, but I don't mix anything into it. I do have a protein shake recipe that calls for cottage cheese. I've tried making the shakes without it, just using milk, but they just aren't as creamy or thick.
