How do you "doctor" your cottage cheese?



Recommended Posts

OK ..I know this is going to sound bizarre ..but I like lite french dressing on mine. We used to eat at a lot of salad bars when I was a kid and I always put cottage cheese on my salad and that orange french dressing was my fav. So now, as an adult, thats how I like my cottage cheese. It's like having my salad ..without the salad LOL.

One of my favorite recipes is Cottage cheese pancakes. Make sure that you undercook them when you are on the mushy stage so that they smash well with your fork. The recipe is loaded with Protein too!

2 eggs, 1 cup cottage cheese, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 2 tablespoons of Water, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla, 2 tablespoons sour cream, 3/4 cup of flour, 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder, 2 tablespoons of sugar free Maple Syrup. In a bowl, mix all of the ingredients. Put some spray butter in the frying pan and cook until both sides are golden brown flipping once. Serve with unsweetened applesauce. This is so yummy. Not to mention, you can add more sugar free Maple Syrup before servingp; but I find it sweet enough mixed in the batter. My husband and son add more to their pancakes though. Also, my husband does not touch sour cream or cottage cheese and I never tell him what I make it with just that its pancakes. Well, try it and let me know what you think.

hey these are really great ideas. I am like Jachut in that i used to buy a 'tub' of it, let it spend a few weeks in the fridge then toss it before it changed life forms. I couldnt get around it until recently. I found they sell it in small containers similar to activa yogurt in four oz individual containers and I LOVE THOSE, they are so fresh. I just put a packet of splenda in it and grab my baby spoon and im good. Something about KNOWING each serving is fresh matters to me for some reason. Maybe im weird.

The problem with cottage cheese (now that I have learned to eat it) is that it doesn't stay with me very long. I am hungry really soon after eating it. It's more of a treat, now that I mix it with yogurt.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
