Any ideas on how to make cottage cheese a dessert?

I open the container and dig in with a spoon :thumbup:

I have never tried cottage cheese OR cream of wheat [those are on my diet now] so i have no idea..i'd look on the food network and do a search..i'm sure they have to have something..especially paula deen..lol

I have better results using ricotta cheese instead of cottage when trying to create Desserts. Here is an example that i LOVE just change the berries to anything in season.

Ricotta with Berries

I throw cottage cheese in my blender with mango, berries or bananas. Add one serving of dry (1/4 box) SF Jello pudding. The cheesecake, banana cream pie or chocolate are great. Add some ice and little FF milk and you have a great treat.

I am SO there with you on just digging in! Or with peaches...Yummy!

I am just so stuck in a rutt and eat so much cottage cheese everyday that I am looking for something a bit different. And since my printer isn't working, coping down a bunch of new recipes by hand seems tedious. What did we do before computers?! Haaa!!!:biggrin:

Not much help but I mix mine with apple sauce.:biggrin:

Thanks guys!!!

Go take a look at theworldaccordingtoeggface.com she has a lot of good recipes. She uses ricotta cheese more but I think there are some cottage cheese recipes.

I sometimes mix mine with yogurt. It adds some texture to the yogurt and some sweetness to the cottage cheese. Of course, I can eat it straight from the container, too!

South Beach Diet has a number of interesting dessert recipes using ricotta cheese. You could run cottage cheese through a blender and probably come up with something similar in texture.

They have one recipe for a chocolate ricotta cream thing that uses powdered Hershey's baking chocolate, a bit of espresso powder, some vanilla extract, and a package of artifical sweetener like Splenda. Whip it all up together, top with mini chocolate chips if you want, and chill in the fridge or freezer for a bit. If you close your eyes, it takes sort of like tiramisu. Actually, it's pretty good. :)

Same as above, I use Ricotta but you can prob do the blender thing with the cottage cheese -

I take a good scoop of part skim ricotta and half a can of pumpkin in my bullet blender with two packs of splenda - it is AWESOME. Tastes like a cross between pumpkin mousse and cheesecake.

Mix cottage chees with SF pistachio pudding mix, some choped nuts ( if you can eat them) and some fruit. Yummie. SOrry, I didn't notice what stage of eating you are currently in. Also blending it with yogurt and fruits is good. ALso, you can mix t with milk or soy milks, instant coffee and and protein powder.

I also do the pumpkin mixed with cottage cheese (not ricotta, haven't tried that yet), some splenda and cinnamon. Delicious.

cottage cheese wth 1 tlbs FF cool whip, sprinkle of SF orange jello & some mandarin oranges drain (in own juice) sooooo yummy. You can also use fresh strawberry's & SF strawberry jello instead of the orange.
