ShyV. 32 Posted January 15, 2013 Hi all, Im 4 weeks out and starting to eat cottage cheese as I've heard it has a good Protein count. Problem is I've never been a fan of cottage cheese and can't seem to eat not even two spoons. I just don't like the taste. Is there anything you guys have mixed into it to give it some flavor?

MinaT 669 Posted January 15, 2013 I like Yellow Mustard on my Cottage cheese. My husband can't believe it, but I always loved it. Even now I will take a piece of ham or turkey meat, put cottage cheese in it with mustard on it and roll it up. If you like yellow mustard it's not bad. At this moment, I know you can't eat eggs or tomatoes, but that's another way I eat Cottage Cheese. I cut up tomatoes or boiled eggs.< /p> I know this is not for all people, but I like it.

diekoi 43 Posted January 15, 2013 I love to mix in cinnamon and Splenda for a more sweet take. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

staboe30 12 Posted January 15, 2013 You could try just pepper on it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vicki0618 123 Posted January 15, 2013 If you mix cottage cheese with yogurt it makes more of a thicker yogurt. Seems to mask the cottage cheese taste some. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soocalchic 1,087 Posted January 15, 2013 I like honey on my cottage cheese try marinara sauce for a savory twist my kids like pb&j I'm not a fan but they say its good Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Escape_Pod 358 Posted January 15, 2013 If I'm in the mood for something sweet I like mine with cranberry sauce, but I suspect low sugar jam would have the same effect. I also like it savory blended with tuna. In fact, I have a casserole recipe that's tuna, spinach, cottage cheese, mustard, some herbs and swiss cheese.

kyllfalcon 768 Posted January 15, 2013 Salsa! Delicious with cottage cheese! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ms.AntiBand 2,984 Posted January 15, 2013 I have never liked cottage cheese, but because of the Protein count I forced myself. I add a tad of poppyseed dressing in mine and I love it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Che-ro 1 Posted January 15, 2013 I also had an issue with cottage cheese, I recommend the Friendship 1% whipped it's in a magenta colored container ... it doesn't have the chunky cottage chesse consistancy. I like to mix mustard as well, I also like to mix guacamole with my cottage cheese, Wholly Guacamole sells indiividual 100 calorie packs. Also, I use cottage cheese in replace of mayo to make salads ... fine chopped chicken to make a chicken salad, tuna I usually add a tsp of mayo with the tuna cause it's dry & chopped ham to make ham salad for the ham I buy the oscar mayer carving station Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jaymzee 79 Posted January 15, 2013 I've mixed Protein Powder, sugar free fruit preserves, tuna, salsa, Peanut Butter.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dartbarbie 4 Posted January 15, 2013 I'm having a slight filling problem with cottage cheese, but I love it. It just really fills me quikly, so make sure to eat slowly so you don't get overstuffed. But I sprinkle McCormick salad Toppings in mine. Darn good. Or french dressing, finely diced sweet or dill pickles are deelish in it too. Or just salt and pepper if I just feel like having it more plain. Good luck! It is a great source of Protein for us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VSG Duck 40 Posted January 15, 2013 I can't eat cottage cheese either :-X I have tried it lots of different ways. What I do like though is ricotta cheese and it has a good amount of Protein too :-) I will eat it with Pasta Sauce, pesto, or a little splenda and the flavor of your choice (lemon or lime zest, vanilla or almond extract and espresso powder are some I use) I have also made it with a little crystal lite powder in a pinch and it was pretty good!
