    I blend it in the blender and use it for everything. Lil bit of ranch seasoning added to it for a dip. Lil bit of pudding powder when I'm craving something sweet. I use it as sour cream. Girl i work with hates the texture of cottage and loves it this way, she adds fruit to hers.I blend the whole container at a time, it blends way better that way and I just store in in it's original container.

    furikake ( but be careful of the sodium) just about any crunchy veggies are tasty.... loads of folks I know add fruit - pineapple, pears etc.... I prefer savory though

    I'm more savory than sweet so I put tomatoes in mine. Usually chopped up ones but grape or cherry works really well too. Splash with some pepper and it's gold!

    I use Franks Hot Sauce, which believe it or not tastes real good. For added crunch I use 2 multigrain Corn Thins.

    A little bit of fat free French dressing...
  • Depending on my mood, I may add Italian Seasoning, or red pepper flakes, or even some Frank's Red Hot Sauce. Spicy foods are supposed to raise the metabolism.

    Avacado, cucumber and tomato splashed with Nakano rice vinegar and just a pinch of Lawry's Seasoning Salt. Delish!

    For a dessert, I melt cinnamon and brown sugar in a bowl (not a lot) with diced apple, once it's warm I add it to the cottage cheese and mix it. It's sort of like apple pie filling, but healthier.

    It sounds gross, but I mix it with a can of tuna and put it on a salad. DELISH!

    Not savory, but my favorite add-ins are Cool Whip, lime gelatin, and diced pears. Still low-cal with the sugar-free varieties.

    Savory: Cottage Cheese Caprese (fresh basil, diced tomatoes, black pepper, a splash of olive oil and balsamic vinegar)

    Sweet: I love dried cherries with slivered almonds. This week I am trying peanut butter and banana.

    I never thought of a caprese! That sounds delicious and a lot less fat than Mozzarella!

    I like unsweetened, natural apple sauce or 2 tsp of raspberry seedless jam. yummm. I actually like that better than ice cream.
