Breakstone's Cottage Cheese



Recommended Posts

I am on mushies now, and wanted to share for those having trouble getting in their Protein. I eat Breakstone's 2% cottage cheese. They come in these little 4oz snack size containers that are perfect bandster portion. Each 4oz container has 90 calories, and 11 grams of protein!!! 11 grams in one little container! It is a good thing. Check it out. I got mine at Walmart.< /p>

You might want to try out LITE ricotta cheese. 4 ounces has 140 calories and 10g Protein. It's my favorite breakfast!

I do have the ricotta cheese. Honestly, the taste isn't for me. I added some sugar free preserves, but it just a funky taste to it. I know my daughter loves it though!! She hovers arond me cause she knows I won't finish it. lol

These are yummy cheesy pancakes with bits of onion. Tastes a lot like a potatoe pancake but healthier. These are addicting, in a good way. Good way to get more Protein in.

1 small onion diced finely

1 teaspoon butter - softened

1 egg

1/2 cup 1% cottage cheese

2 tablespoons flour

salt & pepper (to your liking)

non-stick cooking spray

In a bowl, beat the egg; blend in the onion, butter, cottage cheese, flour and salt and pepper. Mix well. Heat a non-stick skillet and spray with non-stick cooking spray. place 4 one-tablespoon scoops of batter in pan, spreading into rounds with spoon. (The original recipe calls for four 1/4 cup scoops but I found them too big and they wouldn't set for me) Cook over medium heat until set, flip and cook until lightly browned. Good served with a dab of low-fat sour cream.

Original recipe of 1/4 cup scoops makes 6 five-inch pancakes that serves 2 and each serving has 135 calories, 6g fat, 4g carbs, 10g Protein

Cottage cheese pancakes....I'm going to try them. Makes my mouth Water just thinking about it. :rofl:

BTW, I tried the Breakstone brand and didn't care for it AT ALL. YUCK. :rofl: I still think Dean's is the best from what I've tried so far. Maybe I got a bad batch of the Breakstone, but will wait awhile b4 I try again. I just love Dean's so much. :hungry:

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
