    It is so versatile, you can use for breakfast, lunch and dinner. You can use it in salad, in pasta, in muffins and cupcakes, the list goes on and on.

    My favorite thing to do with it though, is make a fruit, cheese and nut salad. Some cantalope, almonds and a 1/2 cup of cottage cheese. Wonderful snack for 195 calories.

    Oh you all have given me a lot of good ideas.

    I grew up putting "maple"-flavored syrup on top. Since I left home, I put pepper or paprika on top. Smoky Spanish Paprika can be really good! I don't add salt because I think cottage cheese has plenty.

    These work with all types of cottage cheese, in my opinion.

    I eat it with Brussels sprouts or spinach. Sometimes I add a little tomato sauce and its just like vegetarian lasagna

    I mix it in with tuna for a low-cal tuna salad spread. You can do the same with egg. It also tastes really good by itself if you sprinkle cinnamon on it.

    I draw an elaborate pentagram with tuna on the ground, followed by kneeling in the center and sacrificing a small tub of cottage cheese to the dark swole lords so that I may absorb 100% of its protein filled soul for maximum gains.

    ...I-I mean I put it on toast.

    Radishes and green onion! Finely dice about 3-4 radishes per cup of CC, add in a thin sliced green onion. The CC tones down the hotness of the radish and the crunch offsets the texture of the CC. (if that's an issue).

    Sprinkle some salt to taste

    Cottage cheese oatmeal pancakes.

    1/2 cup of cottage cheese
    1/2 cup oatmeal
    2 eggs (you can play around with egg whites if u want)
    1 tsp of cinnamon
    1 tsp of vanilla

    Fry in pan with coconut oil.

    I sprinkle sugar because they're not sweet. But if you ate them as pancakes with maple syrup, they are amazing. Best protein pancakes I have tried so far.
