Breakstone's Cottage Cheese

That's not fair. I hate cottage cheese. Well, actually I've never tasted it but I know I hate it. LOL

If you can find it, Light and Lively is good too.

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.
