    I like the sweet with cinnamon and Splenda, or herbed with onion powder, chives and pepper

    Wow, some great suggestions. Never thought about raisins or savory. We have to give it a try. Thanks everyone for sharing.

    Pineapple is yummy with cottage cheese!

    Non sweet favorites of mine are dry roasted edamame or diced cucumbers and dill.

    Love all of these ideas! I am absolutely addicted to cottage cheese with fresh blueberries. I fantasize about it when I am running!
    Will have to try some of these ideas now that blueberries are going out of season.

    I always found the idea of cottage cheese and fruit weird- I hate it with pineapple in like it's sold in the supermarkets here but I finally decided to try it with apple and cinnamon and it was amazing! So I love it with a chopped apple and a fairly decent amount of cinnamon- doesn't need any sweetener. Definitely worth trying! It works so well.

    I'm just now trying to decide which one of these ideas to give a go as a snack! Great thread.

    Good Luck trying to enjoy a sweet addition to cottage cheese, i put chunky coarse red pepper, freshly ground black pepper, hot sauce....never anything sweet. I love CC savory.
    This is true for many foods that i enjoy, savory with a kick or not at all!

    OMG can I just say I just tried to cottage cheese with cocoa and sweetener- utterly amazing and so so delicious!

    Used a couple of tablespoons fat free cottage cheese with a tsp green and blacks cocoa powder and a tsp of sweetner- probably could use a bit less sweetener but so so so yummy!

    This is not the healthiest of versions but I LOVE it!!

    1/2 Cup Lowfat Cottage Cheese
    4 Tablespoons Lowfat Whip Cream
    1/2 a Packet any Flavor Sugar Free Jello

    Mix everything together and refrigerate for a little while! It's sooooo sweet and yummy!! Such a good dessert and it usually makes two servings for me because it's so sweet!! Enjoy!

    It's not sweet, but cucumbers and radishes are really good with cottage cheese, so is black pepper.
    Cherry tomatoes and cucumbers and jalapenos together are even better!
    Try different fruits with a little bit of honey.

    One really good one is adding mango chunks, some coconut butter (or milk), and a can of Del Monte Tropical Fruit in juice (drain the juice off). OMG!

    Or, how about some dried dill, then dip crudites.

    You can add some Hidden Valley Ranch dip mix as well, and dip crudites.

    Or, you can add apple chunks, raisins, cinnamon, honey (or other sweetener), and pecans!

    The opportunities are endless!
