    So, I'm trying to add cottage cheese into my healthy eating but I am clueless as to what to put in/on it? How do you eat your cottage cheese?

      I like cottage cheese straight from the container. But it's also GREAT on toast. Like, too great.

      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!

      That sounds fantastic with the jam and crackers!

      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.

      I add a little garlic pepper to mine and eat it from the container, or I eat it with pears(yummy), or sometimes just some wheat thins.

      I just like it by itself. I pretend I am Little Miss Muffatt, but focus on the curds and disregard the whey.

      I add protein powder sometimes, but usually defrost some berries and mix in the cottage cheese and a few walnuts. Tomato is a good pairing too. My son likes strawberry jam. So many options. It's also great on caramel rice cakes.

      I love crushed pineapple with it. Make sure it is 100% juice though. Pears are good with it too.

      I add chives,parsley and garlic use as a dip for carrots,snap peas,celery etc. Or is also great with some salsa mixed in.

      I prefer savory foods with cottage cheese, so I usually add some basil or pepper and a few cherry tomatoes :)

      I use it on baked potatos instead of butter and lettuce and cottage cheese instead of dressing.

      Blueberry jelly if I am feeling like a splurge.

      I also use it in place of salad dressing sometimes.

      I like pineapple tidbits. I also like to take 1/2 c cottage cheese, mix in a packet of truvia and cinnamon. To that I add one diced up apple and stir. It's pretty awesome.

      I like to make it an afternoon snack.....1/2 cup cottage cheese, 1/2 cup of salsa, and 10 rice thin crackers(or a cracker of your choice). Then spoon a little of each on a cracker and pop it in your mouth!

      Fruit or as is. My favorites are peaches, pears, or pineapples. Some people like tomato. Or just add some salt and pepper.

      My MIL loves her cottage cheese with tomatoes.
