I think that cottage cheese has to be IMHO one of the best foods on this planet! LOL.

Normally, I eat for breakfast. I either have it with some diced cucumbers or tomatoes and a light sprinkling of season salt or I have it mixed with a container of ff vanilla yogurt and a few dashes of cinnamon, nutmeg, and possibly a light sprinkling of Kashi Go Lean.

Mixing it with tuna is pretty good, too. Also, cottage cheese and pork and beans is my hubby's fave(not healthy, though).

Default In place of ricotta

I love cottage cheese, especially in hot and savory dishes. I use it in place of ricotta (for lasagna, eggplant florentine, baked ziti, etc.) because it's moister and cheesier. It's also good on pizza - I make pita pizzas with marinara, part-skim mozzarella, sliced mushrooms, olives and little blobs of cottage cheese on top.

And of course it's great in omelets, baked potatoes and as a filling for fruit crepes. Cottage cheese is like the 8th wonder of the world!

Default A Simple One

Here is a simple one, and one of my favorites. Low-fat or FF cottage cheese with walnuts and cinnamon to taste stirred in. If you want, you can also add a little bit of splenda to sweeten it up. I know I personally have an INCURABLE sweet tooth! Good luck.

I like it a lot of ways, including with a few drops of almond extract & splenda. I also make a jello dessert; in a 4-cup measuring cup, filled almost full with frozen berries, then pour over the hot jello mix (sf); it sets almost instantly because of the cold. A cup of that with 1/2 cup of cottage cheese is sweet & cheesy. cheerio, Sue
