      In the summer, we put cherry tomatoes and fresh onions in it. Yummy!

      Probably an " English" thing looking over all the reply's but we eat cottage cheese on a hot Baked Potato with salad. It's lovely.
      But all these ideas are just great because I was planning to get some Cottage Cheese again this weekend.

      This sounds like a great alternative to butter and/or sour cream. Thanks for sharing!

      I love cottage cheese. I usually eat it for lunch. I make a salad out of it using thawed frozen peas, raisins and sunflower seeds!! So good!

      Am I the only person that doesn't like cottage cheese? I don't mind it mixed in sauces or used in place of ricotta in my lasagna. But, man, I just don't like it! I like Greek yogurt though! :tongue:

      No, you're not alone...its why I can only eat it in my smoothie to tone down the sweetness of it in the morning. Or IN foods..but by itsself and the gag factor of it takes place in two bites. Bleh Bleh Bleh.

      With blueberries, raspberries, or strawberries if you want sweet, or I put a little salt and tomato slices.

      Not a fan of it with fruits. I usually eat it plain or on some tortilla chips:) It's soooo high in sodium though!

      Do you cut the tomatoes up in it or put the cottage cheese on top of the tomatoes?

      either way is fine with me, it's just so frustrating how much sodium is in it :(

      1) just plain with pepper or 2) a packet of tuna/celery salt and some triscuit crackers.

      I've always eaten cottage cheese with a little salt, and a lot of pepper. Sometimes accompanied with a tomato, and green beans-yum!

      I was never a "sweet cottage cheese" eater, I fairly recently made faces at my father in law for pouring sugar, or maple syrup on his at dinner, lol!

      I just now went and dished up a serving of cottage cheese, and had to pick from the MANY good ideas here.... Ended up adjusting the take on the Key Lime-I added a packet of True Lemon and some Splenda-Awesome, new favorite snack!

      I love eating cottage cheese on baked potatoes, or with poached eggs for breakfast! Really though, I'm addicted to cottage cheese! I love the stuff!!

      Just started eating it and love the fact that I have more ideas to try now. I like it at the moment mixed with ground pepper and chives on toasted wholegrain bread with tomato slices. Just enjoyed it for breakfast then. YUM!!!

      I eat mine out of a bowl with a spoon... ha ha ha... anyways, I eat it plain. I only buy the low fat stuff though.

      I loathe cottage cheese, so if I feel obligated to eat it, I don't mix it with fruit or yogurt because I don't want to mess up the taste of the things that I love! LOL

      Bump! So many yummy ideas! :D I'm a cottage cheese with pepper person, but have also added a teaspoon of ranch and eaten with veggies. Can't wait to try the "sweet" combos as well as celery salt. Great thread!

      Cottage cheese rocks!! (As long as it's not on my legs!!) :) I love to eat my cottage cheese with honey and cinnamon! YUM! Or another way I like it is with grapes and/or pineapple and plain cottage cheese. Another way is to cut a cucumber in half, spoon out some of the middle, fill with cottage cheese and top with salt and pepper. You really can't go wrong!
