I love sprinkling some Johnny's seasoning salt on mine. I can't buy it here, so have to have it shipped. http://johnnysfinefoods.com/products/seasoning-salts/seasoning-salt-16oz/. If I didn't care too much about my carbs, I'd scoop that up with crackers. But, sigh, I do right now.
I've also added it in equal parts with Greek Yogurt, milk and cottage cheese to a smoothie. Also, fruit and protein powder.0 -
I can't do it! Tried many times. The texture is just awful! Glad you found one you like but I've given up hope! Lol.0
-
These are great suggestions!
I like to swap it out for ricotta in veggie lasagna (I use it for the 'cheese' within the layers - and save shredded stuff for the top.0 -
Great ideas! Here I was getting bored with eating it plain.....thanks everyone. Cant wait to try it with the frozen berries!!0
-
I hate the texture and the flavor by itself.
But inside a smoothie - it's amazing, better than greek yogurt. Blended up with onion, garlic, and spices for a vegetable dip.0 -
I use full-fat cottage cheese...not much more calories and the taste is way better. Lots of times it has less sugar, too! I love cottage cheese with avocados, I use it as salad dressing on salads, I top it with some cracked pepper and sunflower seeds, or I mix it with some fresh berries.0

I mix it with salsa and eat it with pita chips! Plus I like it just with pepper and a pinch of salt! I think I'm addicted to it!! LOL0

I usually stick it on toast...
but I'm bumping this for later - I want to try the icecream0 -
Typically with pineapple or I will dice up a small apple, stick in the microwave for 50 seconds and then mix in cottage cheese and cinammon. It's delicious!0

Eat it with tuna, peaches, pears, and even pineapple! Yum!0

Fruit on top-in eggs and pasta for cheesy flavor-in my oatmeal. Also blend it with herbs add a bit plain greek yougurt use for dipping or in place sour cream,mayo etc;-)0
-
Of course fresh pepper is always a plus as well as most any fruit like strawberries, blueberries, pineapple, peaches, etc... The small curd is better for beginners as the large curd has a totally different texture(larger).0

I have it in my protein shake every morning. 1 scoop protein powder, 1 cup fruit and 1/2 cup cottage cheese. Blend. Easily transported to work for breakfast or even to drink in the car on the way.0

my wife puts pineapple in it. I can't stand it myself0
-
honey! it makes cottage cheese taste completely different0

I have a great recipe for pasta and chicken sausage with a creamy pumpkin sauce that uses cottage cheese as a replacement for cream. It is SO good.

I add 1T of chocolate protein power, 1t almonds, and 1t chocolate chips or a crumbled chocolate oat cake. SO YUM!0

My favorite is a "breakfast sundae:"
dice 1/2 banana
1 scoop (about half cup) cottage cheese
2 tsp strawberry jam (I make my own low sugar freezer jam - I love it on cottage cheese!)
and sprinkle granola on top for some crunch.
It's my go-to when my boys are having ice cream sundaes, or when I want something sweet for breakfast with some protien.
I love all these ideas!0 -
I like mine with a sprinkle of cinnamon & dried cranberries , I also use this to top Ezekiel sprouted grain cinnamon raisin bread. Or make french toast with the cinnamon bread using egg whites & top that with it. You can add honey if you want it sweeter.0

Tried it for the first time a couple of weeks back and was surprised that it tasted salty, wasn't expecting that especially since people suggested eating it with fruit.0
