Default What's your fav cottage cheese concoction

I need some new ideas. Ive been to the Krista Smash site, and used alot of those recipes, and a few others. But I need some new ideas.

My latest fav is to take Mel's protein bar break it all up in bitty pieces and mix it up with a serving of cottage cheese that has been mixed with vanilla and splenda

How are you eating your cottage cheese?

My ideas aren't very creative, I'm afraid. I prefer my cottage cheese plain, although I do like mixing it up with scrambled egg whites or mashed potatoes, lol.

I love my lowfat cottage cheese with pineapple. But, I remember a friend in college would mix his with peas and sunflower nuts and ranch dressing (all from a salad bar). It was heavenly. Probably loaded with calories, too!

I'm a cottage cheese purist as well. Sometimes I'll put a mound of it on my plate and surround it with a ring of sauteed or steamed carrots. Very pretty.

I can't add anything from plain. I hate fruits in mine personally. If u really want a healthy one though, try eating ur's with spinach on the side. That stuff is wicked health.

This morning for breakfast I had 1/2 ff cottage cheese mixed with 1/2 unsweetened applesause, 1 TBSP ground flaxseed, and about 7-8 pecan halves (broken up). It was yummy tasting and kept me going all morning as I was in interviews without much time to eat in between.

I add chocolate whey protein powder and splenda to my cottage cheese. It tastes so yummy! It reminds me of chocolate crispy or chocolate cocoa puffs cereal I used to eat!

Okay, this is not healthy but it is my favorite. Cottage cheese mixed with crushed nacho cheese Doritos. It is so good!
