    I toss one of those little single serving cups of cottage cheese and one of the "no sugar added" fruit cups in my bag every morning before work. It's the perfect portion controlled mid morning snack at my desk. I mix them together in the cottage cheese cup, although it gets a little messy. I don't think I've ever opened one of those fruit cups without spilling some of the juice.

    With a tomato and a little salt and pepper or in place of salad dressing on my fresh veggie salad, so yummy! It's creamy and I don't miss ranch dressing at all!!!

    Ways I had it before and it was good:

    -With homemade low sugar cranberry sauce (used stevia to make it)
    -With pepper
    -With pomegranate seeds and you scoop it with celery sticks
    -With blueberries
    -In a tuna melt instead of shredded cheese and mayo (you mix it in there with herbs and then put some shredded cheese on top)
    -With edamame

    I'm sure I've repeated a few other suggestions here, but I like to eat mine with beets, jam, and fruit!

    I got a great recipe for a protein pancake that looks yucky, but believe me, it's yummy!

    1/3 cup oats
    1/3 cup cottage cheese
    3 egg whites

    blend it all together until it looks like pancake batter and then cook it like you would a pancake, you can also add some cinnamon or cocoa for flavor. I like to put some peanut butter and cut up Banana on mine....super good!

    This might sound weird at first, but you HAVE to try it! Garden Salsa Sunchips dipped in the cottage cheese is not-so sinfully AWESOME!

    This is what I love !! Not sure of the calories but it shouldn't be too bad :)
    My Mom always made this when we were kids. I substituted the lower calorie options.

    Cottage Cheese and Lime Jello
    1 - 8 oz (sm) low fat cottage cheese
    1 - sugar free lime jello
    1 - 6 - 8 oz can crushed pineapple
    1 - 8 oz (i cup) lite cool whip
    Mix cottage cheese and lime jello powder (dry). Add crushed pineapple (drain all od the juices off of it).
    Fold in Cool Whip and chill 1 -2 hours before serving.
    Enjoy !!!

    On toasted bread, crackers, crispbread or English muffins with some pepper and a sliced tomato.

    Mixed with chopped garlic, pepper, chives, spring onions and basil on boiled potatoes (with skin on).

    Plain as a dip for carrots and celery stalks.

    Thanks for the great ideas. I thought I was the only person who didn't like fruit in their cottage cheese. I usually eat it as a dip or topping for veggies or scrambled eggs

    I agree -- I'm going to have to put 4 tubs of cottage cheese on my list to try out all of these ideas.

    I have really gotten into the cottage cheese with grape tomatoes.
