    I've been having Cottage Cheese since a few weeks ago and I add it to Omelettes. I have also used in breakfast burritos which also consist of turkey sausage or Quorn sausage and scrambled egg. Really great protein breakfast.

    I will also use it as a substitute to mayo at times.

    EDIT: Maybe you should also try buying the Onion and Chive version? I buy that and it's really great.

    Hi All,

    I know cottage cheese is good for hyou and I have tried incorporating into my diet a few times but I just can not get over the taste and the texture.

    Theres gotta be something healthy I can mix into it that will change the taste and hide the constancy.

    Any thoughts?

    Just wanted to say thanks to the person who gave this recipe

    500g cottage cheese (2 cups)
    2 beaten eggs

    mix together and add quiche like vegetables mushrooms, peppers etc put into a flan dish and bake for about 25 minutes @ 400 degrees

    I made mine with lump crab meat, green onion, slivered almonds, and just enough mozzarella to melt on top. So good, and you'd never guess it's cottage cheese.

    its LUSH

    The brand you get can make all the difference in the world. I hated the "chunks" and liquid stuff too.. YUK.. then I tried "Michigan" brand cottage cheese. Small curd. It's amazing!!! It has a totally different taste then the others. And very good with all the suggestions here :) If I can't get that brand.. I don't buy any.

    I like to put sugar free jam like strawberry or apricot on it. I'm big into the salty and the sweet combination.

    Salsa is a great addition to cottage cheese and virtually calorie free - but it can be high in sodium so be careful about that. :love:

    Here is a recipe I enjoy:
    1 cup cottage cheese
    1/2 cup pumpkin puree
    1 scoop protein powder
    add pumpkin spice or cinnamon to taste.

    Mix with a food processor or hand blender under smooth.

    I call it pumpkin protein pudding.

    Yay! Sounds like pumpkin pie, think I'll try this with a lil bit of granola and sugar-free cool whip!! Mmm..getting hungry now =)

    1 tub of cottage cheese
    1 can crushed pineapple, drained
    1 pkg sugar free Jello, any flavor
    1 container low fat or fat free Cool Whip

    You can also toss in a can of drained mandarin oranges.

    I used to eat this a lot when I was doing WW many years ago. I recently thought of it again and decided to start taking it to work for lunches to change things up a bit.

    I mixed 1/4 cup into my scrambled eggs today. Very good and tons of protein. Though I like cc I could not tell it was in my eggs.
