I love my cottage cheese with chives, but I think that is a 4% milkfat? You could just add dried chives and puree? I also always need some salt and pepper.

I put my cottage cheese in the blender with a little cream cheese, Greek yogurt and artificial sweetener. I mix it with strawberries. Can't stand cottage by itself either!

I have found that I like cottage cheese with a splenda packet and some fresh strawberries. I do put unsweetened canned peaches or unsweetened pineapple chunks in it too (also with some splenda). I sometimes add sugar free jello to it, straight from the packet, and a little goes a LONG way. Obviously I like mine on the sweeter side but I have also had people tell me to put salt and pepper on it and it is good that way. I haven't tried it with s/p but could be. I always use the lowfat made with 2% milk.

Why not just eat yogurt instead?

I agree...cottage cheese is icky! And, I also agree...why not eat greek yogurt instead!

I like my cottage cheese sweet (with unsweetened fruit) I also like mix a few tablespoons of it into yougurt. The craziest way I eat it is to mix about 2-3 Tablespoons of Salsa into about 1/2 cup of cottage cheese. Looks awful, tastes good.

Try some splenda sprinkled on to with some cinnamon...even better put it on bread and broil in toaster oven then scrape off bread tastes like a danish

I add a few sliced strawberries and blue berries. For added crunch and to keep things flowing smoothly I mix in a little fiber one cereal.

I love, love, love cottage cheese with diced tomatoes. Canned are fine. That's if you can handle the acid. Just a few and a little of the juice really flavors the cottage cheese...and I add salt, pepper and a little garlic powder. Yum, yum.

This is just my reasoning but cottage cheese has more Protein and less carbs than even greek yogurt. I like the yogurt better but I'll take the cottage cheese for the higher protein and lower carbs any day :)
