Cottage cheese HOW DO I?

My favorite way is to mix in a spoonful of low sugar orange marmalade. Yum! Disclaimer: not a good idea if you don't like orange marmalade.

I usually eat it by itself with salt/pepper, but I've eaten it

Bagel, cottage cheese, tuna on top. Toasted if you're into that.

Cottage cheese and shredded buffalo chicken in a tortilla wrap. Maybe some hummus to hold it all together. DELISH.

I don't particularly love cottage cheese for the taste, but I love the protein it packs.

I love cottage cheese so I just eat it plain. But I don't tend to eat it very often anymore because the sodium is so high and the low sodium versions taste kind of funky.

But I would tell you that if you don't like, don't force yourself to eat it. There are other ways to get protein. Look for some plain Greek yogurt and sweeten it with some stevia or honey, or even just regular cheeses, rather than the cottage cheese.

And assuming that if you're eating cheese you're okay with eggs as well, so hardboiled eggs as a snack are great (or scrambled, fried, poached, etc).

I have eaten it with sliced peaches in natural juices since I was a kid...Love it for a sweet treat

I drain and rinse canned pears or peaches and eat cottage cheese with either. I have to be in a mood for cc lol

I like to mix it with chopped tomatoes and season with lemon pepper.

I also have a cottage cheese cake (low fat) recipe. Or I used to. (I should check.)

These responses are amazing. I stopped eating yogurt because I'm trying to reduce the amount of fat in my diet, most greek yogurts I've found just add cream to make it as nice and thick as it is, and I don't want to add sugar anywhere in my diet really.

I'm sure I'll figure it out by experimentation, this is going to be exciting.

I don't like meat substitutes and I can only eat SO many eggs. I feel like there is a place cottage cheese will fit just perfectly, just have to find it. I barely dip into sodium, so I can't imagine that hurting my efforts. I'm more of a pepper girl, so I like that idea, just something to balance it out.

Try Fage Greek Yogurt. It's an actual traditional twice strained yogurt that you can get in 0% fat versions. And there aren't any added sugars, only whatever natural sugar there is from the lactose, the same as the sugars in the cottage cheese. I do the 0% Fage with a packet or two of sugar free sweetener and it's great. Maybe add some cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice for an extra kick. I'll even mix in a few tablespoons of pureed pumpkin along with the pumpkin pie spice and that's my favorite.

And, believe it or not, I've actually done cottage cheese with a serving or two of unsweetened dark cocoa powder. It was very rich and quite tasty.

sometimes with clementines and apples

sometimes with a sprinkle of lawrys

or mixed with salsa and scooped on corn chips

but i really really love putting a scoop on like a plate of hot lasagna or chili.

if you dont like it, dont force yourself so much other good healthy foods

I cant stand cottage cheese by itself...sooo...
For dinner. I mixed :

cottage cheese,
one egg,
cumin
black pepper
onion powder
garlic powder
check for salt


blend it all and make Pancakes!!!!:drinker:

I'm a vegetarian too!

I usually eat cottage cheese with either pineapple or a tablespoon of strawberry/blackberry preserves.

Or I'll mix in a tablespoon of almond butter / peanut butter / nutella.

Or I'll mix it with tomato sauce and eat with pasta/veggies- it makes it really creamy and delicious!

I eat cottage cheese almost every day! Usually with just a little pepper, but sometimes I'll eat it with fruit instead. Had some yesterday with fresh pineapple. Delish!

Just eat it. Salt and pepper.
In another life, I used it as a dip with nacho Doritos. Oh heaven.
Drop a spoonful in a bowl of chili. Delish.

i LOVE it. sometimes ill mix in cinnamon and truvia. and sometimes ill add a scoop of almond butte

Smoke weed. Anything will taste good
