    about half cup chopped red bell pepper
    little bit of chopped red onion
    S&P
    sprinkle of olive oil

    Everything! I add it to my oatmeal (after cooked, it gives it a creamier texture!) or to make protein pancakes.

    My new favorite thing is to mix it w/ sugar-free Jello (strawberry Acai flavor is sooo good!) and a few strawberries. Very low calorie, high protein snack!

    I also use it instead of sour cream to top my chili or potato (especially sweet potatoes w/ a sprinkle of cinnamon!).

    I buy the HUGE tub from Sam's club... it's 80 calories and 12g of protein... can't beat it!

    With cayenne pepper on a multi-grain Wasa


    I feel less weird now. Kindred spirit!

    Don't know how to quote, but Yes! Except I'm willing to exchange the Wasa for a bit of salt. Sea salt, preferably, so you get a crunch with your salty surprise :bigsmile:

    I love to use it as a hearty dip for carrots. Yummy! I am not a big carrot fan but I can pack those babies away with the cottage cheese!

    great ideas!

    I like peaches or pineapple if i'm in the mood for a little sweetness, Otherwise it's garlic salt and black pepper. Yum!

    This sounds weird but it's really good: chopped tomato, chopped onion, mustard and S&P. Yum!

    The idea of eating cottage cheese with anything actually grosses me out. I eat mine entirely plain.

    Lay's classic potato chips. Used to scoop it up. Sometimes crumbled over like a topping. Still delicious after the chips get mushy.

    I just recently discovered cottage cheese isn't as bad as I had made it out to be all those years!! :laugh: Currently I just pepper the heck out of it - but I think I'm ready to move on to other combinations!

    Thanx for starting this thread!! :happy:
