How to you eat cottage cheese?

My favorite cottage cheese is Simply Kraft - Low Fat Cottage Cheese 2% Milk Fat Small Curd, 1/2 cup (122g) . I have tried the fat free but it tastes horrible. This one I can eat plain and it tastes great to me. I add nothing to it. I eat it with celery. Instead of using a fork or spoon, I scoop it out of the dish with the celery.0

In my protein shakes!!! It gets blended up & you don't know it's there... Check out www.dashingdish.com for recipes-they are delicious!!! I also use it recipes, like chicken salad instead of mayo (you blend it up there too, got that from tosca reno's eat clean diet)0

i put season salt or creole seasoning on it, you gotta say BOOM! like Emeril when you do it0

Instead of yogurt in the morning I have 1/2 cup 1% cottage cheese with some chopped strawberries/fruit and 1/3 cup of bran buds. Some days I just op for the cottage cheese and bran buds. I feel full until lunch time.0

I add bacon bits to it.0

Yes, I buy low sodium cottage cheese which BTW is bland without the salt, so I add Chia Seeds 1tablespoon, or Hemp Hearts 1 tablespoon and a little Stevia, and I love it. Sometimes I but half and half of chia and hemp hearts. Love it, have it every afternoon.0

Sweet? with pineapple or peaches.
Savory? with smoked paprika or lemon pepper.
Smoked paprika is my favorite! :smokin:0 -
I love Lidl Light cottage cheese (74 cals per 100g and 13g protein).
Plain with lots of paprika is ace but I'm also one of those people who love it with pasta or put it on straight to wok noodles - yum!
It's a great savoury pancake filling and the oatcake and cottage cheese pancakes are brill too.
I've never thought of most of the sweet versions on here so might have to be brave and give that a go, I love cinnamon but never thought of putting it on cottage cheese before!0 -
I just watched a cooking show that recommended adding a little lemon juice to cottage cheese and blending it together and using as a substitute for sour cream. I tried it and it really tastes similar and is a much better alternative to using sour cream.
I've also seen recommendations of using cottage cheese in smoothies, but haven't tried that yet.0 -
I checked a few pages of comments and did not see this suggestion: Breakstone 2% fat cottage cheese and apple butter.
Mussleman's Apple Butter - Apple Butter, 1 Tbsp (17g) 30 calories, 8 carbs, 0 fat, 0 protein, 0 sodium, 6 sugar
I also eat cottage cheese with Costco grapefruit packed in natural juice (in cups) or about 4 sliced strawberries.
One trick is to turn cottage cheese container up side down in refrigerator to keep cottage cheese longer.0 -
i use it in place of ricotta cheese...in all recipes...especially lasagna....delicious:blushing: and no one ever knows!0

I sweeten 1 c with 1 packet of stevia (Truvia brand), add 1/2 t cinnamon and a tablespoon of chopped walnuts. It's delicious!0

I make an egg bake that includes cottage cheese. Mix beaten eggs, cottage cheese, cheddar cheese, cooked veggies, and some ham/bacon/sausage together and bake! YUM! Protein loaded breakfast on the go. I even made them in muffin tins this time for something even easier to grab and go.0

With tomatoes and fresh basil, balsamic vinegar, extra virgin olive oil and a touch of salt and pepper. Cottage cheese caprese = yummy!0

I eat cottage cheese a couple different ways:
1) I will cut up a green onion and mix it with the cottage cheese.
2) I cut up green onion and tomato and mix it with lemon juice and cilantro. Then I eat it along with the cottage cheese.
3) Green peppers mixed with the cottage cheese works good also.0 -
Sweet chilli sauce
Chilli
