    Hmmm, you could add some siracha and scoop it out with carrot slices.

    I like cherry tomatoes with cottage cheese. I have made fun of eating it at work.

    Chopped green pepper, tomatoes and a little minced onions, maybe Vadalia, seasoning salt and pepper. This is an old family recipe. We have it at all our family gatherings.

    Hmmm that's a tricky one. Was going to suggest pineapple, but then read that you don't like the fruit/savoury thing going on. Apart from the usual salady things, I can't think of anything else, sorry :/ Good luck!

    NOTHING. Cottage Cheese is disgusting!

    But...if you like it, more power to you! Add some berries or bran cereal.

    Cottage cheese with chopped slice of cooked hamm is great even better with chopped onion-

    or try it grilled like cheese on toast on wholemeal bread.. bit more than 50 cals but yummy

    Any fresh fruit would go well and can be fairly low on the cals depending on which you use. Watermelon is great but you need to dry it out a bit first or you could do strawberries or even blueberries. Hope you figure something out :)

    Ok, I love the pineapple too, but since you don't like fruit have you tried chopping up some green onion and black pepper? It's simple and very tasty.

    I love it with natural applesauce and pineapple. (1/4 c.) To me it is almost as good as icecream. (I said ALMOST)

    Cottage cheese and tuna fish. Might sound a little funky, but I think it's awesome!

    This isn't exactly what you were looking for, but you may like it. I eat cottage cheese almost every day and I LOVE putting a generous amount of Mrs. Dash Tomato Basil Garlic on mine. It really turns it in to something amazing. It also doesn't add any additional sodium content because the Mrs Dash seasonings are sodium free. I may try the Mrs Dash Southwest Chipotle today on mine!

    bump--never thought about salsa with cottage cheese, but just thinking about it is making my mouth water! Yum.

    I prefer sliced pears, but I know you're going for savory. I personally like it plain with salt and pepper. The lettuce wrap idea is great too--you could sprinkle some chia seeds in there to boost nutritional content if you like!

    Ooo, I also just thought of olives!

    I chop tomatoes and cucumbers and add crumbled feta. Just a tablespoon adds flavor. Garlic salt and crushed pepper

    Do you know scandinavian bran crispbread? One slice has 12 calories but is very high in fibers so you won't be too hungry all day long ;) To be honest, eating them without topping is boring because their taste is okay but not overwhelming. But I like to eat them with cottage cheese and rosemary or cottage cheese and tomato slices !

    I like mine with mrs. dash and garlic powder. Not a fan of cottage cheese with fruit unfortunately, but this gives it an un-boring flavor. I usually eat an apple before it so I still get that sweet and then savory trade off.
