    I like to add fresh pineapple, peaches, or sliced tomato with pepper sprinkled over the cottage cheese! You can also add blueberries, blackberries etc, but fresh is better as they don't have all the sugar that you find in the canned fruits...

    I add up fresh or canned fruit on top of my cottage cheese. i can make it taste different each time. Even applesauce or jelly is good also.
    Me too...love some no sugar added peaches or fruit cocktail

    I mix it with tuna! And add it to pasta or rice noodles. It's a weird combination but it tastes nice!

    I may be strange but I love cottage cheese with sunflower seeds in it (without shells of course)

    I will add a tad of vanilla, cinnamon and sweetener of choice to 1/4 cup of cottage cheese, and broil the cottage cheese mixture on toasted bread. Top with 1/2 cup of pineapple (crushed or tidbits, your choice).

    I use it to make a 'quiche' -

    1 small tub of cottage cheese (drain the excess water out of it),
    5 eggs
    2 tsp garlic
    275g spinach (I use frozen, but defrost and squeeze any excess water out)
    2 rashers bacon
    50g reduced fat cheddar cheese (or other low fat cheese of your choice)
    seasoning to taste

    Mix all the ingredients together and combine in an oven dish. Cook at 180C (or 350F for you Americans :smile:) for around 25 - 30 mins. Makes 4 big portions, I reheat mine and eat it with a salad for lunch. It's also low in calorie and high in protein.

    Per serving:

    326 cals
    5g carbs
    22g fat
    28g protein

    I eat mine with salt and pepper but I saw a great pic on pinterest the other day where someone mixed cottage cheese with a few cherry tomatoes, avocado, and cucumbers. - looked amazing!

    I like to mix tuna or diced chicken with cottage cheese, green onions, celery and curry powder and use it for a sandwich or top a salad. I also like to melt cottage cheese in the microwave with refried beans and salsa and use as a dip. Or I top it with green onions, chopped tomato and diced cucumbers with a little black pepper. It is also good as a filling for omelets instead of other cheeses with the other toppings as usual.

    A large double cheese, pepperoni pizza with a side of garlic bread pizza with cheese, fries, coleslaw and a slug of coca cola - that usually makes it taste great

    So many ways to eat it, with:

    -Salsa
    -Cranberry sauce
    -Put some pepper in there, get's it spicy
    -Jam
    -I put it in lasagna, tuna melts, with some meals when I don't want to have my calories too high up, ex: pasta, vegetables.
