erp 2,016 Posted January 11, 2014 I like Daisy brand, no additives or unpronounceable ingredients. 2 SuperFab and jhkrn reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scarlet333 386 Posted January 11, 2014 I like the Friendship 1% cottage cheese. 1/2 cup is 90 calories and is great with blueberries or strawberries or alone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mistysj 1,940 Posted January 11, 2014 Besides the brand, you will have a choice of large or small curd. Try each and see which you like. I prefer large curd because it has more liquid in it. Lots of people prefer small curd though. I can't do fat free cottage cheese but low fat is fine to me. You can put sweet things in it like fruit, or you can add salt and pepper, or mix it with chopped tomatoes or put green onion in it. Try several ways to see if you have a preference. I definitely prefer savory but lots of people prefer sweet! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I thought this cheese was sweet?! So I can mix it wit that?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So I can mix it wit that?! Small curd has less liquid yep. It's not sweet. It's a little salty and not a strong flavor. So you can add fruit or savories or have it plain. You can get a small tub of it and try a few different ways. It is really high protein! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mommysonadiet 25 Posted January 11, 2014 the brand doesn't really matter, try skim or low fat. I add splenda and ground cinnamon to mine, sometimes strawberry jelly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

webhopper 57 Posted January 12, 2014 I love the fat free small curd as a base for Protein Shake. Add ice cubes and two tablespoons of cottage cheese; some fruit; Protein powder; and some milk and you've got yourself a nice protein shake Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
