Cottage Cheese Anyone?

I use mines with pineapple and had it on crackerbread and top it with tomato and cucumber or on a baked potato. I love it, wasn't a fan when younger

Am i the only one who has cottage cheese as a staple? I know it high in sodium ( i drink a ton of water ), I dont need to be on a low sodium diet . I have at least 2 cups a day

Its my main source of rptoein cause I cant afford meat.

I just bought myself some cottage cheese today, however I am very wary and not particularly looking forward to trying it as I have heard from many that it doesn't taste very nice

You've heard.....from others......that it doesn't taste nice.


Does that mean that you've never in your life had cottage cheese before? At all?

How strange.



Anyway, I like it all sorts of ways. Straight from the carton, with fruit mixed in (blueberries, or pineapple), with chopped tomatoes mixed in (and a little bit of either Jane's Crazy Mixed-up Salt, or Mrs. Dash), and it's amazing on top of a baked potato (instead of sour cream), or on top of a veggie bake that we make (diced potatoes, sweet potatoes, beets, onions, carrots, with some olive oil and italian seasoning).

I couldnt it eat it on its own but with pineapple its fine, get a low catorie one with pineapple much nicer

I love cottage cheese! I mostly eat it on my salads instead of salad dressing. I'm weird, I guess, I do not like salad dressing...lol. Cottage cheese is also good to eat with just tomatoes...yum!

I'm sure they're horrible for you... but I LOVE it with bacon bits sprinkled on top! It does wonders for the texture.

I saw your post and I just had to answer because I am sitting here eating cottage cheese.

I eat if plain or with crackers. You can put it in lasagna. But different brands have different tastes. I only like one brand so if one turns you off, try a different one.

I eat it plain or on a salad. Breakstone has a new low sodium cottage cheese. I saw it at walmart but it was outdated so I didn't buy it. I will when they get more. I look out for my sodium intake as well and if I can buy the low sodium kind I will. Daisy 2% is the lowest i have found besides the Breakstone brand.

I like cottage cheese with pieces of fresh pineapple or mango. Makes a great breakfast, or quick lunch.

I just eat it the way it is. Sometimes I add pineapple. Breakstone has 100 cal cups that come with fruit already.

I like to add fruit to my cottage cheese!
I loove cottage cheese and adding watermelon or other kinds of fruit just makes it yummier!

By itself is good, too

I really like cottage cheese myself. I sprinkle some freshly ground pepper on top of it and chow down. Yum

I add fruit. I use it in salad. I eat it plain. Sometimes I toss in some ham. I know it's high in sodium....but I drink lots of water and watch the other sodium levels.

I'm very particular about the brand of cottage cheese I like. But when I do eat it I love it on a slice of toast and some fruit on the side! I grew up with that! It was almost a staple in our house for breakfast!

I am particular too...it has to be low fa 2%t small curd Knudsen...pink container. Have tried other brands...and ended up tossing them.

YES! Pink contain Knudsen is the BEST! I've had to throw out other brands too. But now I live in a different area and can't find Knudsen anymore. I recently got desperate and ended up trying Trader Joe's Organic low-fat and it was pretty good. Not nearly as good as Knudsen pink, but totally edible. I'll keep buying it, because I love cottage cheese as a low cal, high protein snack. But if anyone in Seattle knows where to by Knudsen CC, let me know!

To answer the OP, I usually just eat cottage cheese plain. I don't like mixing it with things usually, but I will sometimes have a sliced apple or something on the side. I know a few people who eat it mixed with granola.
