    If oyu like spicy, I put in a bt of Sririachi sauce to it. Other wise tomatoes and cucumbers are great to mix in.

    If you have ground dried thyme, it would be great and super healthy

    Drain & rinse thoroughly with water. Add to homemade lasagna, it gets chewy & takes the place of meat :happy:

    If your not afraid of salt, I love it with seasoning salt. Big Boys makes an awesome one.

    Yummy plain. Just get the right brand. I like Humboldt Creamery. Grass fed, organic, nice and sweet.

    I like it on toast - fruit toast, cottage cheese and cinnamon with a scrape of date spread, or plain toast with mixed herbs on top. Fresh thyme is good, but even dried herbs work ok.

    Plain with chopped dates, cinnamon and a pinch of nutmeg is also tasty.

    I mostly eat mine plain with pepper. I also buy the 2% because it tastes better. I will mix in blueberries, put it on a salad, on top of plain rice cakes or in lasagna instead of ricotta. I love cottage cheese.

    cottage cheese quiche

    ingredients

    peppers, diced
    onions, chopped
    courgettes, diced
    baby sweetcorn, sliced
    asparagus, sliced lengthways
    mushrooms, chopped
    tomatoes, sliced
    3 eggs
    150g fat free natural cottage cheese

    method

    Prepare whatever veggies take your fancy… peppers, onions, courgettes, baby sweetcorn, asparagus, mushrooms and tomatoes. You can dry-fry them until soft or leave them raw for extra crunch.
    Mix together the 3 eggs, 150g fat-free natural cottage cheese and some chopped parsley.
    Lay the chopped vegetables out in an oven-proof flan dish then pour the cottage cheese mix over.
    Pop in the oven at 190ºC/375ºF/Gas 5 for around 30 minutes, or until the quiche is set and golden brown.

    Love this but haven't had it in a while. Will have to have it soon. YUMMMMM!!!

    Cottage Cheese is one of my favorite snacks. I mainly just add pepper to it, but on occasion I will add some sunflower seeds. Make sure the seeds are not old, they really mess with the flavor of the cottage cheese when they have the old taste to them.

    I've always eaten it with pineapple or peaches mixed into it. Lately- I've taken to eating it with scrambled eggs for breakfast. I saw it on pinterest and even my "hates cottage cheese" hubby will eat it that way. It's a great recipe for someone who has issues with the texture of cottage cheese. I just wizz 2 egg whites, 1 whole egg, and 2 tbsp of 2% small curd cottage cheese in the blender. Seasoned with a dash of tobasco. Then just make as you would normal scrambled eggs in a non stick pan. Some mornings I'll add diced onion and bellpepper and spinach too. It's delicious. You can't tell the cottage cheese is in there because it blends in with the texture of the scrambled eggs- BUT your eggs taste cheesy like an omelet.

    Its kinda gross to eat to begin with IMO. First few tries I had it I thought it was pretty foul. But after having it for a few days, it has grown on me, and I actually enjoy the taste. There are great benefits from it as it is a good source of slow digesting casein protein. I have a cup of nonfat cottage cheese every night before bed now as a late night snack. Does a pretty good job of satiating my hunger

    I also have a pancake recipe that uses it.
    6 egg whites
    1 cup cottage cheese (I use 2%)
    1 cup old fashioned oats
    2 tsp sugar
    1 tsp cinnamon
    1 tsp vanilla

    You blend it in the blender and then use just like pancake batter. Makes about 3 servings or about 8-10 pancakes. i serve them with an all fruit, no HFCS jam that I melt in the microwave to sub for syrup. My kids will eat these and it's another great recipe for those who don't like the texture of cottage cheese on its own

    I have low fat cottage cheese almost everyday ... it goes on my turkey sandwich (as a low fat creamy spread) or as dip mixed with pepper and chilli flakes that I eat with celery sticks. I have grown to love it! :smile:

    Mix in banana and a little honey. I saw the recipe online and thought it sounded gross but decided to try it and now it's a regular thing for me.

    Sounds good! I'll have to try it.
