Green salsa. Bonus points if I have the option of blue corn tortilla chips, but just thought cottage cheese and salsa is good, too. I did have it with V8 today.5

Nice ripe tomatoes with salt & pepper is my favorite! Pineapple is pretty darned good, too, if you're craving sweet.5

Bananas & grapes.

I love cottage cheese! If I have leftover chili or spaghetti I will add a scoop on top. Yum!10 -
So many interesting options. I would have never thought of chili or spaghetti. Hot sauce. I will have to try some of these. I usually eat it plain, man am I boring. haha3

I like to add some preserves if I'm going sweet, or lots of cracked black pepper and eat it with crackers.2

Haha. Some of these are truly appalling, but I guess I won't know until I try them. Canned pears or peaches only for me.4

Someone posted a truly appalling sounding recipe on here not too long ago. She called it GLOP. Ground turkey, salsa and cottage cheese. I just worked up the courage to try it last night. Eaten hot, it's amazingly delicious. I never would have guessed in a million years. And man, what a wallop of protein!

I love cottage cheese. I like to add blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, banana slices, pineapple, apples, grapes, mandarine oranges, etc. Pretty much any fruit. Sometimes I'll add some chopped nuts like pecans. For a more savory option, I sometimes add avocado or guacamole. Not the prettiest looking, but I like the taste.2

Applesauce for sweet.
Salsa or sauerkraut (weird, I know, but it's my skinny girl pierogi cheat) for savory.0 -
My favorite is to use Quaker oats sea salt and black pepper rice cakes as "chips" and the cottage cheese as the dip.4
-
1/2C Canned no sugar added peaches, blackberries, raspberries, blueberries I find to be a great combo with cottage cheese:).1
-
Sliced canned beets or grape tomatoes and lots of cracked black pepper.2

Fresh berries, usually. I do love it with pineapple the mostest! I've never been brave enough to try it savory.0

Oddly enough, I tend to think of savory as the default mode for cottage cheese. I didn't learn to eat it with sweet things until I was an adult!
FYI - cottage cheese is recommended as a substitute for ricotta cheese if you can't find good ricotta in your area. It works wonders in lasagna or mixed into pasta.5 -
OMG ! Never imagined I would see so many responses. Thanks to all ! Wrote them all down. I am set now.1
