Cottage cheese with...?

What do you mix your cottage cheese with?

As disgusting as it sounds, I seem to like adding half a table spoon of fat free chocolate syrup on 1/2 cup of fat free cottage cheese. I've tried with salt and pepper and although it tastes fine, I still have to push myself to eat that.

Looking for more simple recipes =)

    I love cottage cheese plain as it is but I also love strong flavours too so usually I'll chop up some hot chilli peppers and garlic and mix that in to the cottage cheese plus some dried cumin, oregano and maybe a little bit of mint.
    It's delicious and hardly any extra calories on top of the plain cheese.

    I put it on top of little cut up tomatoes and sprinkle some pepper on it. My daughter and husband like it with Jelly. :)

    I love it mixed with fresh necatrines, and I love it on toast with a little bit of jelly. My son loves it that way too.

    I eat it plain, on top of salads, sometimes I mix pineapple in with it.

    Vanilla and a little sweet n low or I put it in smoothies and pudding (blender pudding) 1 cup cottage cheese, 1/2 cup skim milk and a few tbsp pudding mix. Blend in blender. I do not recommend chocolate pudding, it doesn't seem to set well.

    a drizzle of maple syrup
    crushed pineapple
    granola with raisins
    salt & pepper
    i also mix it into an egg scramble to fill it out more

    what I didn't realize until last week though, is how high in sodium it is - ugh. drink more water!

    You're right, that DOES sound disgusting! LOL ;-)

    But, mine sounds gross to a lot of people, too!

    I add 1/2 TBSP of Ranch dressing
    Sprinkle some shredded cheddar cheese
    1/4 Cup (or less) of sliced green olives

    I love it!!! :-)

    I like mine sweet or savory. For savory I like it with salad (instead of or with very little dressing) or with salsa and chips, and for sweet I usually just have it with fruit.

    A friend of mine on here gave me her awesome recipe. A carton of cottage cheese. I used low fat, but will probably use no fat next time. 1 cup sugar free coolwhip. I can of crushed pineapple. I just used the small one. And a pkg of any flavor sugar free jello. Mix it all together and put in the fridge to set. I hate cottage cheese, but this I loved.

    I'd be too scared to try this one. But I might try with just olives, that sounds interesting

    I love the idea of maple syrup. And I am definitely going to try the scrambled eggs with fresh basil - never would have thought of adding cottage cheese to eggs.

    I like mine with pineapple or cantaloupe. Yumm-o! I like it with most fruits. If I am looking for a simple meal I will mix cottage cheese with a little greek yogurt, green onions, salt & pepper to taste. Let it sit for a bit in the fridge. Then I put it over hot whole wheat spaghetti noodles. It doesn't sound very good but love the savory! :love:

    I like to sprinkle some low sodium bacon bits in my cottage cheese. Adds great flavor and some texture!
