    Mashed Cauliflower and Cottage Cheese.

    Take a head of Cauliflower (break apart) and microwave with water till tender
    Take half of the cooked cauliflower add into Blender.
    Take a cup of cottage cheese
    Add salt, pepper, garlic powder to taste.
    Blend till you get a smooth consistency.

    It should be very smooth and creamy. And tastes like you're cheating, but you're not.

    Other variation: Add some olive oil while blending
    Add cumin, salt, pepper, garlic powder, almond paste.
    Cauliflower Hummus.

    I didn't read thru the entire thread but the only way I will eat cottage cheese is in a smoothie....a super protein packed smoothie.

    1/2 cup cottage cheese
    1/2 cup milk (I use 1%)
    1 scoop vanilla protein powder
    1 Tbsp Jello sugar-free cheesecake pudding powder
    Dash of vanilla extract
    Handful of ice cubes
    Packet or 2 of artificial sweetener to taste

    Makes a thick smoothie that tastes like cheesecake cake batter. Search for 'cheesecake cake batter' in the database to add it to your food diary. TONS of protein, and under 200 calories.

    You can literally just mix a big scoop of it into canned tuna, add salt and pepper (or hot sauce, celery, onions, tomato, lime juice, lemon juice, etc) and eat it like that for a protein-splosion.

    Eat it with a fork or with a few whole grain crackers.

    This sounds sooo good!!! ...but cottage cheese with lemon juice? never thought of it :P I might just try this for dinner...thank you!!!

    my fav is just mixed with fresh strawberries...to make it even more dessert-y add a splash of vanilla and a pinch of stevia or honey..yummy
    or as a topping for potato etc in place of sour cream..
