I have better results using ricotta cheese instead of cottage when trying to create Desserts. Here is an example that i LOVE just change the berries to anything in season.

I am SO there with you on just digging in! Or with peaches...Yummy!

I am just so stuck in a rutt and eat so much cottage cheese everyday that I am looking for something a bit different. And since my printer isn't working, coping down a bunch of new recipes by hand seems tedious. What did we do before computers?! Haaa!!!:biggrin:

I throw cottage cheese in my blender with mango, berries or bananas. Add one serving of dry (1/4 box) SF Jello pudding. The cheesecake, banana cream pie or chocolate are great. Add some ice and little FF milk and you have a great treat.

That sounds really good!!:biggrin:

Go take a look at theworldaccordingtoeggface.com she has a lot of good recipes. She uses ricotta cheese more but I think there are some cottage cheese recipes.

I sometimes mix mine with yogurt. It adds some texture to the yogurt and some sweetness to the cottage cheese. Of course, I can eat it straight from the container, too!

South Beach Diet has a number of interesting dessert recipes using ricotta cheese. You could run cottage cheese through a blender and probably come up with something similar in texture.

They have one recipe for a chocolate ricotta cream thing that uses powdered Hershey's baking chocolate, a bit of espresso powder, some vanilla extract, and a package of artifical sweetener like Splenda. Whip it all up together, top with mini chocolate chips if you want, and chill in the fridge or freezer for a bit. If you close your eyes, it takes sort of like tiramisu. Actually, it's pretty good. :)

Same as above, I use Ricotta but you can prob do the blender thing with the cottage cheese -

I take a good scoop of part skim ricotta and half a can of pumpkin in my bullet blender with two packs of splenda - it is AWESOME. Tastes like a cross between pumpkin mousse and cheesecake.

Mix cottage chees with SF pistachio pudding mix, some choped nuts ( if you can eat them) and some fruit. Yummie. SOrry, I didn't notice what stage of eating you are currently in. Also blending it with yogurt and fruits is good. ALso, you can mix t with milk or soy milks, instant coffee and and Protein Powder.< /p>

I also do the pumpkin mixed with cottage cheese (not ricotta, haven't tried that yet), some splenda and cinnamon. Delicious.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
