    I like sun dried tomatoes, red peppers (roasted or raw), olives, caramelized onions, salsa, pesto, or marinara sauce. I like it Caprese style too!

    Sunflower seeds and dried cranberries

    quartered cherry tomatoes and a sprinkle of crumbled bacon. Finely shredded fresh basil

    A stir-in of a small dab of pesto.

    cilantro and cucumber.


    Or: Sometimes I like to use it almost like a salad dressing - top a chopped salad with a dollop of cottage cheese. If you use full-fat cheese you really don't need salad dressing. Or just an additional sprinkle of dressing, lots less than you usually use.

    I typically do either pineapple or dice up an apple, throw it in the microwave for a minute then mix in the cottage cheese and some cinnamon. Yum!

    I love it with salsa too. Or just some dill and black pepper. And use it as a dip with celery.

    I'm trying to eat cottage cheese (I find it marginally yummy, but I think it has hidden potential). Thanks for the suggestions!

    Cottage cheese is the one, single food I have ever found that I will not eat. Vile, nasty, horrible stuff. If you like it, good on ya, but for me some fresh veg is an infinitely better snack.

    A garbage can?

    KIDDING! Just Kidding, everyone. Honestly, I can't stand the stuff but I do like ricotta cheese. If you could blend the cottage cheese maybe the same recipes could apply. Some of the things I' do with the ricotta are:

    Savory: Fresh tomato, basil, and a protein (chicken if you eat it). Lunch meat roll ups. Also, brocolli and baked potato chopped up in the cheese.

    Sweet: Blend it smooth and add cocoa powder and splenda.
