    love cottage cheese with "fruit" ...
    Also, if you do lasagna, you can do a veggie lasagna and replace ricotta chees with "cottage cheese"
    very good :)

    I made alfredo sauce using cottage cheese the other night. The whole family raved about it!! I got the recipe from The Gracious Pantry. It's clean eating blog.

    I just eat it plain or with fruit mixed in. I love it with strawberries, peaches or pineapples.

    Some people like it with apple butter on top.

    I like it plain or with fruit.

    My favorite way to eat cottage cheese is with chopped tomatoes and some dill. I also like it with kiwis or peaches. It's also good on top of wasa crackers.

    No pastry Quiche

    ingredients:
    peppers, diced
    onions, chopped
    courgettes, diced
    baby sweetcorn, sliced
    asparagus, sliced lengthways
    mushrooms, chopped
    tomatoes, sliced
    3 eggs
    150g fat free natural cottage cheese

    method:
    1.Prepare whatever Superfree veggies take your fancy… we’ve used peppers, onions, courgettes, baby sweetcorn, asparagus, mushrooms and tomatoes. You can dry-fry them until soft or leave them raw for extra crunch.

    2.Mix together the 3 eggs, 150g fat-free natural cottage cheese and some chopped parsley.

    3.Lay the chopped vegetables out in an oven-proof flan dish then pour the cottage cheese mix over.

    4.Pop in the oven at 190ºC/375ºF/Gas 5 for around 30 minutes, or until the quiche is set and golden brown.

    :happy:

    A spoon. It's how I ate mine just now. Or stick it on Ritz crackers or other crackers.

    I love it plain but if you want something different add a bit of powdered ranch and some cut up scallions and use it as a veggie dip. You can blend the cottage cheese in a blender if you like and to reduce the size of the curds.

    Also, someone was mentioning cottage cheese ice cream a while back.I don't know the recipe but I was intrigued. Google cottage cheese ice cream and see what you come up with.

    Try it with your eggs in the morning :) Gives them a nice protein boost and cheesy taste that you can't feel guilty about!

    These protein pancakes are delicious: http://www.food.com/recipe/south-beach-oatmeal-pancake-93019

    I add some ground flax seeds and use a little less oatmeal.

    I don't have much of a sweet tooth, so I go a different route. When I first get a container of cottage cheese, I mix in fresh green onion, garlic powder, and freshly cracked sea salt and black pepper. Your breath might be horrible, but I find it tasty :blushing:

    Cottage cheese with boiled corn, with broccolli, with cauliflower, with baked potatoes, ( sweet or normal) , with any kind of vegetables. Or if you want a sweet treat, mix it with sugarfree smukers jam. Yummmy!
