I drank the same Protein before surgery, I'm going to try it without the milk. I've been sinking the Premier Protein and there very tasty.

Weighed in at 217, disappointed.
On new meds, possibly the culprit of gaining. Staying positive ????
Keep up the great work everyone!
Stay hydrated!! ????

I know this sounds silly but a nurse friend suggested that I go to the Dollar Store and get the athletes foot cream and use it every day as a preventative. I've had yeast infections under my breasts for years, and wow, it really works. Worth a try and you can only lose a dollar if it doesn't work.

Fresh homemade hummus, w/veggies and wheat pita, tear into pieces, bake in oven with a bit olive oil, sprinkle lightly w/salt, onion powder and garlic. They get crispy and delish!Always a big hit and no left overs ????

I like to add honey or pineapple chunks when crave sweets
Or a teaspoon of jam, usually strawberry or apricot.
For savory, I like to add onion powder or a bit of ranch dressing and make into a dip, eat up with a few chips or veggies ????.
And sometimes I place whatever I created and eat it on 1 slice of wheat toast
Depends on craving and mood ????
Thank you for posting this, everyone's creations sound delish!

I like to make cold spinach dip with Greek yogurt in place of the sour cream/mayo and serve with raw veggies instead of bread or crackers.

At my Mom's my favorite was the meat and cheese tray!

I happen to love cheese, and cottage cheese has come to be one of my go to meal and snack staples.
I like cottage cheese plain, but I also like it topped with something tasty.
I like it with various toppings and add-ins like:
Freshly ground black pepper
Fresh, ripe, sliced Tomato
Fresh herbs (like dill)
Fresh fruit
Cucumber yogurt salad
Greek salad toppings
Kalamata olives
Pickled beets
Dash of Salad Dressing
What do you like to add to your cottage cheese?

unfortunately my pouch reacted violently when I tried cottage cheese - hoping someday to be able to eat it again because I love it.
I also loved it with fruit - especially mandarin oranges - - Have you tried it with chives?

@@Inner Surfer Girl - shredded sharp cheese and a pear/pineapple (canned natural juice)

I have made it with fat free marinara and a little shredded chicken and some eggplant as a meal - layered it like a lasagna and it was grand! I do love plain cottage cheese too.

This may sound weird, but I like to put some splenda or truvia, cinnamon and Fiber one Cereal on cottage cheese.< /p>

I like everything you listed.
I like to add pudding into the mix as well as fruit. I have done just the pudding powder as well as actually making the pudding and mixing it together with the cottage cheese.
I also, similar to @@kimby1029, have mixed it with marinara sauce (or any Pasta sauce, except alfredo), topped it with a little cheese (usually parmesan), and enjoyed. I have heated it up slightly and have eaten it cold.
I sometimes add cottage cheese to Protein shakes for more Protein and thickness.
I have seen recipes for cottage cheese pancakes but I have not tried them. I think the recipes for ricotta pancakes sound yummier.

I add my scoop of Protein Powder to my cottage cheese with spices, delish!!!!

I put a scoop inside half an avocado with salt and pepper. I can only take a few bites of it at one sitting. 7 weeks out. Maybe it will get a little better soon.

Muscle Milk cake batter Protein powder + cottage cheese tastes like cheesecake.
I also love cottage cheese and peaches. It's a snack my mom always made for us kids.

Salt, pepper, and some Picante sauce... I love it like this, and got the idea because I also like it with chopped tomatoes, salt n pepper.
If I want something sweet I will add a little squirt of strawberry Mio and a pack of Stevia.
Cottage cheese is also good topped with Spaghetti Sauce and warmed in the microwave.

Mmmm, love cottage cheese with pineapple and cinnamon with a tiny bit of stevia - the colder the better. It's heaven, close your eyes and it's an ice cream sundae with pineapple

My go-to is also cottage cheese.
My adds:
1. A few raisins and a few chopped walnuts
2. A pkt of Splenda and a diced 1/4 apple
3. A pkt of Splenda and a diced 1/4 peach
4. Some green chili and a bit of shredded cheddar

I forgot to add that I have used it in place of sour cream on a baked potato. I haven't had a baked potato since surgery :/

I also mix my non-fat cottage cheese with real whipped cream and oreo cookie crumbles... naw, I don't really, only in my old fat dreams...

Apple, cinnamon, a dash of splenda brown sugar
Yum!
I grew up with cottage cheese being associated with sweet stuff (eg: added jam, fruit etc)
It boggles my mind to see stuff like salt and pepper or salsa and tomatoes added!
I have never had any of that with cottage cheese. Who knows, maybe I'll try it and actually like it!
????

@@heather5565, definitely try it savory. I have eaten it both with sweet/fruit and savory but I prefer it savory.

I add cool whip and strawberry Jello powder to it. You can mix in mandarin oranges and/pineapple tidbits, too. I now use cool whip lite and sugar free Jello, which tastes exactly the same.
