Breakstone's Cottage Cheese



Recommended Posts

Love cottage cheese! thenry, thanks for the recipe for the pancakes - I'll definitely be trying those this weekend :)

FunnyD, bought the 4oz/4 pk Breakstones recently... I like them because they're individual containers and I can grab one to take with me to work. While a bit more expensive than the large container, I'll probably waste less and therefore save more buying the 4 pk. I was banded in Oct 2005, so it just goes to show you we can all learn from each other! While I'm very frugal, I'm slowly realizing that I can't purchase food like I used to. And, I'm love to find new snack sizes to take to work for the times I have a bit of head hunger. Beats going to the snack machine for those evil peanut m&ms!!

Another Breakfast fave of mine is .... grits. But, I can only eat a few spoonfuls... I might have to try making them with a bit more liquid, or remove them from the heat before they firm up like I usually prefer.

Do you guys have any good Feta recipes? I'm feeling like I need a bit more lunch variety.

thanks!

I bet that was it....will try the 2%....thanks!!

I bought the cottage doubles(2%) Breakstone with cottage cheese and pineapple....I threw it away, but I was only trying cottage cheese on your recommendation 3 Loves :) I hate cottage cheese...really I hate it, but I did give it a try. I'm sure that it is wonderful for those that like cottage cheese but those curds gave me the creeps :target:

Funny...I mix that little cup of 2% with 2 tablespoons of meat flavored spaghetti sauce and 2 tablespoons of grated low-fat parmesan cheese and microwave it a bit. Tastes like lasagna without the Pasta. You can put a little low-fat/part skim mozzarella too yummmy. Certainly helped me during my mushy stage...for those that don't like curds...puree it in your food processor. Yummy yummy and simple.

I have had the doubles, which is handy, but I didn't find them as good as the snack size 2% without the fruit. Seemed like the cottage cheese is more watery in the doubles and I can't stand watery cottage cheese.

Doty ~ You made me laugh out loud. Creepy Curds, huh? :Banane56: I love cottage cheese, it's a staple in my diet. Last night I had cottage cheese & tomatoes with a touch of pepper. Tonight I'm going to look for those yummy grape tomatoes b/c last night it was Roma and those skins were too tuff for me to eat.....had to eat the insides. I can see tiny green tomatoes on my plant & can't wait for them to be ready.

leatha ~ There is nothing worse than runny cottage cheese. YUCKO!! Talk about creepy curds.

      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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
