OMG.......you have to try this. Take a banana and heat it up in the microwave for a few seconds (i usually leave the peel on but open it up a bit) Something with heating it makes it sweeter and then just cut up and put on cottage cheese. Another way is to cut up apples (peeled or not) and mix with splenda and cinnamon, heat in microwave and put on cottage cheese (or oatmeal). Taste like heaven0

i seen a forum earlier, it was used in quiche.... i always eat mine plain, with my meal, but the recipe was simple. I think it was 2 eggs, a cup of cottage cheese and whatever veggies you wanted with it. combine it, pop in oven....not sure what the temp/time was though....0

I hollow-out half of a cantaloupe and fill the "bowl" with some cottage cheese.
It makes me think that more foods should provide their own bowl.0 -
i lke it with a little salt, pepper and sliced fresh tomatoes.0

I've made it sweet and I've made it salty. You can put a little sugar in there and it's really good... you can also freeze it to make it kind of like ... fake, lumpy ice cream. Or I put a little salt in there and it's a nice little salty snack. But I don't do that anymore because I'm *trying* to watch my sodium. I don't add salt to anything anymore. I've eaten it just plain and that's good, too. I've also put it in my lasagna in place of ricotta and it tastes fine there.0

I tried the cottage cheese with cocoa powder and splenda idea from this thread last night and I LOVED it. It reminds me of a fudgesicle. I think I have found my new favorite high protein snack.0

UGH! Throw it away! LOL0

I didn't get a chance to read all the replies, so don't know if this is a repeat. But I eat mine topped with pineapples and/or peaches.0

How many does this make. This recipe is about 600 calories, so unless it makes 2 or 3 this is a high calorie breakfast.0 -
Plain with a little pepper
On top of a salad instead of shredded cheese--you need less dressing
With sunflower seeds and a tsp of jelly---yummy treat--lingonberry jelly is my favorite combo0 -
I just eat it plain with salt and pepper and dill.0
