    I almost forgot. I found this recipe in Oxygen Magazine I have been dying to try:

    Protein-Packed Pina Colada

    1c lowfat cottage cheese
    1c crushed pinepple, drained or 1c pineapple juice
    1/2 frozen banana
    1/2c skim milk
    1 tbsp shredded coconut
    1/2 scoop vanilla whey protein powder
    1c ice cubes

    Place all ingredients in a blender and process until smooth.

    TOTALLY trying this...

    I use cottage cheese in most of my protein shakes, less calories and still a LOT of protein

    1/2 c low fat cottage cheese
    1 scoop protein
    1/2 c water
    Ice

    Its super delish

    It's really good in eggs/ stir fry/ chili etc. It melts like regular cheese and adds protein. Also good on toast.

    I eat mine with a spoon. Sometimes if I'm feeling froggy, I'll use a fork to eat it, when I mix it with my spaghetti.

    I usually eat it with fruit, but I have recently learned its value using it as a dressing on salads.

    I also eat it with a ton of black pepper! It's also great with Mandarin oranges (drained) and canned pears or peaches!

    I like it mixed with poached/grilled boneless skinless chicken breast with a tablespoon of barbeque sauce.

    Sweet - with crushed pineapple, or any fruit really.

    Or, as a dip with veggies and a little bit of seasoning mixed in. (My kids eat the popcorn seasoning - Sour Cream & Onion, and that is great mixed in!)

    I use it in lasagna all the time, in place of mozzarella (except for a small bit on the top)

    Matter of fact I'm eating some now. I sprinkled it with dill today and I am dipping my celery stalks in it. I love it plain, with tomatoes, mixed up with salsa as a dip, in lasagna instead of ricotta cheese, I could go on and on and on. I personally do not like it with fruit though and I know that puts me in a limited % of the population.

    I make my cottage cheese like a salad a lot of times...I put in a little diced red onion, cucumber, grape tomatoes (cut in half), and a little avocado. Soooo Yummy. I usually eat this as my lunch. ;0)

    Usually just pepper, but yesterday I chopped up some Habanero Stuffed Green Olives into my Cottage Cheese. Pretty good.

    I like mine with a tablespoon of craisins and a tablespoon of chopped walnuts and a dash of cinamon.

    I make a cottage cheese quiche, blend it with ranch mix for a dip, top baked potatoes with it, add it just about anywhere I would use cheese or sourcream. Love it!

    I like a dash of Black Pepper on about 1/2 to 1 cup of cottage cheese. Occasionally I like peaches on my cottage cheese.

    My absolute favorite thing to mix with cottage cheese is avocado. YUMMY!!!! That is actually one of my favorite meals.
