    How I alter the recipe:
    *Use a whole onion
    *Use whole eggs
    *Use regular cottage cheese instead of whipped
    *Add wayyyy more dill and garlic
    *Add cheddar cheese to the top 15 minutes before it's done and then broil it at the end
    *Works just as well with kale (not sure about other greens)

    I just made cottage cheese lasagna. Fry up some ground beef and toss in a jar of commercial tomato sauce. Layer tomato/meat sauce, then dry lasagna sheets, then cottage cheese. Let stand for 4 hours so that the pasta sheets absorb some moisture before baking 30 minutes covered with foil, then sprinkle grated hard cheese on top and bake for another 15 minutes. You can freeze these. Take out to defrost in the morning and cook as normal in the evening when defrosted.

    I make blueberry cottage cheese overnight oats.
    1/2 cup cottage cheese
    1/2 cup milk
    1/2 cup Quaker Oats
    1 tsp honey (or whatever sweetener you like)

    Stir everything together, top with a sprinkle of sliced almonds and a big handful of blueberries. Stick in the fridge for at least 6 hours, but overnight is best. I usually load up on the blueberries and get 2 servings out of it. Makes a great quick breakfast or snack. :)

    I have a bowl of cottage cheese and I load it with banana peppers. Tastes great if you like spicy foods.

    I do not like cottage cheese. However, I tried cottage cheese pancakes and they were to die for! I will look for the recipe. But it was ground up oats, cottage cheese, cinnamon

    2 of my top ten foods to eat...
    Baked potato with butter topped with cottage cheese
    Cold pork and beans or warm baked beans topped with cottage cheese-yum
    We grew up eating cottage cheese as a "side dish" often served when we had spaghetti along with corn,
    or served with roast, carrots and potatoes.
  • How about some muffins? With the below quantities, it makes about 10 muffins

    * 2 eggs
    * 1/2 cup while wheat flour
    * 25g raisins
    * 1 1/4 cup cottage cheese
    * a pinch of cinnamon
    * vanilla extract (optional)

    Preheat oven to 180C. Mix all the ingredients well. Line oven pan with 10 paper muffin cups and divide the dough evenly among them. Bake for about 30 min, until the tops are slighly golden brown.
    Serve with yogurt, honey or blueberries

    Enjoy :)

    I think sweetened cottage cheese is nasty so I always use savory mix-ins. My current go-to is Cholula hot sauce, a bit of lime juice, and a few crushed up tortilla chips.

    That sounds like utter genius! I’ve only got maybe 15g left of a tub of fat free cottage cheese in the fridge, so I know I’m going to the nearest supermarket in the morning! It’ll be the closest thing to nachos that I’ve had in a very long time!

    I really like a scoop of it on top of homemade spicy lentils or split peas.

    Cottage cheese and diced onions & pepper. Maybe a shake of hot sauce on top.

    I sauté or roast my favorite fresh veggies and then mix them with soyrizo. Then I layer brown rice, the veggie mixture, cottage cheese, and salsa. It’s AMAZING.
