I mix mine with plain Greek yogurt add stevia and nut butter! Yummy!0

I mix in vanilla protein powder and its like a cheesecake. I will typically add fresh raspberries or strawberries and dark chocolate as well.0

There's a bottle of dried herbs you can find in the produce section that has dehydrated red onion, garlic and chives (can't remember the brand but it's a "salad" blend). I like to add a bit of this into it and then when lunch comes around its all hydrated and delicious
That sounds like a great idea!!0 -

Not lame at all. I love it with canned peaches.0 -
I love it with walnuts and a little cinnamon. Apples are great with it too.0

Ms Dash Seasonings-- there are at least 8 of them with no added salt. I like the Onion & Herb, Garlic & Herb or Tomato Basil the best in cottage cheese.

As sweet stuff I like it with Apple, cinnamon and honey or banana and almond butter. As savoury stuff it's nice with lots of fresh herbs, dill is my favourite. As part of meal I like it with potatoes and smoked mackerel.
Try different brands til you find the one you like the most. Some taste almost like yogurt just with different texture, some are slightly cheesy or salty.0 -
I am a cottage cheese fanatic! Eat it almost every day for breakfast. I definitely prefer the full fat, large curd. I can eat it just plain, or i like to mix in tomatoes, avocados, chives, peas, green onions.. all kinds of veggies are great in it. I think my absolute favorite is a medium (don't like hard) boiled egg chopped up and add some black pepper. It's simple and delicious.0

salty only!
I eat full-fat breakstones (I'm a snob about this) and I like to mix in ground pepper and sunflower seeds. yum!0 -
For fat percentage I like full-fat or two percent. Fat-free dairy is just not very satisfying for me, and in cottage cheese I don't like the drying feeling I get in my mouth with it. (Astringency is the reason I won't eat fat-free yogurt either, blech.)0

Totally love my Cottage Cheese (awesome part is no one else does so it is ALLL mine)
My favorite way is blend it with 2 egg whites, 1 yolk, vanilla, and sweetner packet or honey or sugar (whatever you prefer) then mix it with 1/2 cup rolled oats and cook it like pancakes. Big Protein boost in the morning, tasty with cool whip or sugar free syrup. It does make 'thick chewy' pancakes - but I like mine that way. Keeps me from feeling hungry for a few hours too.0 -
I go for full fat when I can find it and find that some brands taste better than others.
I often do jelly as a mix in, but fresh fruit (peaches) works great too.0 -
I used to hate cottage cheese. I think it was the curds suspended in liquids. I started eating it with tuna or chicken as a salad. That helped a lot. That way it wasn't as soupy. I did learn I only like the small curds and cannot do the fat-free. Now, savory, sweet...WHATEVER. Any seasonings, veggies, proteins, extracts, fruits, jello mix, pudding mix, it all works! Combine your favorite flavors! Even if you have to blend it a bit for a while to acclimate to the texture, it works!
Good luck!0 -

-
I like to put pudding powder in it and mix it up0

I tried the sugar free jelly mix in and it sadly did nothing for me.
I either use a little chocolate protein powder and peanut butter protein powder or pb2 or cinnamon and splenda or dump a drain individual container of sugar free peaches on it.0 -
I can't stand cottage cheese but it is a great protein source so the only way I can stomach it is cooking it with my eggs or egg whites with seasoning. It cooks like cheese so I pretend it is melted cheese on my eggs and it does the trick. I sometimes add the cooked cottage cheese and eggs in a whole wheat tortilla with salsa/avocado and maybe some turkey bacon and woilah, you have a breakfast taco...:)0
