    I've never tried quick oats, but for my cottage cheese I like to add either fresh/frozen pineapples, blueberries, mixed berries, sometimes a tablespoon or two of whipped cream, and maybe some chocolate morsels.

    honestly though cottage cheese with oatmeal sounds nasty.

    i would have cottage cheese on the side with salt and pepper, or mix in some fresh fruit, or have it plain.

    oatmeal is good different mix ins such as: fresh fruit and honey, pb and syrup, applesauce and cinnamon, chocolate protein powder

    if you really don't like cottage cheese then don't eat it or try eating it mixed in with scrambled eggs or on toast with some tomato. But don't mix it with oats please that just ruins two good things. If you're just looking for something to use up the cheese then maybe bake something. Add enough sugar and spice and anything tastes good. :)

    Until I started to look for things to eat, better choices I had never liked oatmeal. I always associated like movies from the 30s, like the kids in the orphanage with them going down the lunch line getting slop tossed onto their food trays. One day my mother made some and I was like, ok... I'll try it. It lacked flavor. I added some cinnamon and it was ok. I then bought the little packs, like apples and cinnamon, etc. which adds sodium but it was a good trade off for me. I liked them, and just today bought some Strawberries and Cream.

    I need to learn on making it from scratch, since there is no sodium in the unprocessed ones.

    I also like cottage cheese, but with oatmeal, lately I've had a bagel with it and some cream cheese. It's a smaller bagel so its less calories.

    I absolutely love cottage cheese with crushed pineapples. I also like oatmeal, but like others have stated...mixing the two just doesn't seem that tasty. lol

    My PT suggested Oats and Cottage cheese to me also (maybe it's an English thing) I haven't tried it yet but want to. She said you have to like savoury food to enjoy it though. I just don't know what else to put with it. Would love to know what you think and if you have any suggestions what else to have with it. I'm struggling for low sugar breakfast ideas at the moment :(

    Looks like that'll be my breakfast tomorrow. I have frozen berries but am sure they will be just as good.
    Thanks for sharing :)

    Oh... do you just put it together and eat or add the cottage cheese and let it stand overnight? (like a bircher)

    put the cottage cheese in a food processor or blender and make it creamy instead of chunky...it tends to blend in better to other foods then...i like taking cottage cheese and making a garden vegetable spread...cottage cheese, shredded carrots, chopped green onions (if you like them), some chopped red pepper...whatever veggies you like...some salt, pepper or whatever spices you like and food processor away! great on cucumber slices or with celery sticks or carrot sticks.

    I love oatmeal and cottage cheese (and splenda for sweetness). I have it for breakfast almost every morning, but I vary it by adding in different fruits. I mostly do banana, apples or applesauce, strawberries, peaches. The cottage cheese makes it very creamy and adds a good amount of protein.
