    I use a half/quarter serving on top of a baked potato instead of the butter and sour cream. Delicious.

    I love cottage cheese with pretzels, chips, or just plain-- but the extra low fat versions are not nearly as good by themselves.

    Yep. Super yum with bbq potato chips, but not the most calorie friendly. It's also good plain, with fruit, and with applesauce. yum!

    Curd milk is not good.

    I eat cottage cheese nearly everyday. I either just eat it plain with a little pepper or I steam fresh veggies and mix it in with the veggies. Love cottage cheese!

    I have it as a snack every afternoon as follows:

    1/2 cup of cottage cheese sprinkled with cinnamon; and
    1/2 of an apple cut into chucnks.

    Delicious and tides me over until dinner.

    Just watch all of that fruit - the sugar content is through the roof!

    I don't typically mix my cottage cheese with anything but if I do i mix it with horseradish. YUM!

    Great idea. Some diced tomato and cucumber would be great with that.

    I like to spread it on Wasa bread crackers with slices of tomato, sprinkled with seasoned pepper or season all or something like that. Yum... I haven't had that in years... I might need to go find some!

    this sounds really good!

    A nice little dessert is 1 teaspoon of your favorite jelly/jam added to 1/2 cup cottage cheese, oh my gosh it's wonderful!! Another trick I found is if you drain and rinse off cottage cheese it's almost like cheese curds and can be used in veggie lasagna, jus sayin...:smile:

    Personally, I like eating it by itself or on a cracker. But my mother is a fan of eating a cup of cottage cheese with 3-4 slices of peaches. She thinks that is a great combination.

    I don't like my cottage cheese mixed with sweet things (like fruit). I like cottage cheese with a lot of fresh ground black pepper and I eat it with a spoon.

    Eat it plain and 1 serving is plenty for a snack. You can add a serving of frozen berries to it if you like but keep it low cal

    I like it mixed with pineapple with a bit of cinnamon sprinkled on it. I also like it plain or with a bit of black pepper. I also blend it smooth and use it for dips, salad dressings or to replace sour cream on baked potato. You can use a generous amount without sacrificing all the fat grams.

    I love it plain, but only the full fat stuff. I made the mistake of trying to make myself eat the ff and low fat versions for awhile. YUCK! I stick to the good stuff now.

    I usually have it a couple times a day. I eat 1/2 cup either plain, with some sriracha in it, or with fruit...usually fresh cut pineapple.

    Mmmm....

    I decided to switch to no salt cottage cheese due to the RIDICULOUS high amount of sodium in it. So now I eat:

    1/4 c no salt cottage cheese
    1/4 c strawberry greek yogurt

    102 calories, 11g carbs, 12g protein, 1g fat

    (and most importantly only 48mg sodium)

    LOVE IT!
