I eat cottage cheese with a tablespoon of sugar free preserves. It kind of resembles the cottage cheese doubles without the high sugar content.

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 :)

Yep, you got it! I love yogurt but im having trouble gettinf in enough protein everyday. Looking for things that pack a protein punch in small amounts! Lol

I buy these cottage cheese combo packs. I love them! I'm 15 lbs from goal. strawberry, peach, blue berry, and pineapple flavors

I personally ate yogurt before the sleeve and now I never ever do. I've become obsessed with counting my carb intake and yogurt has a lot.

Cottage Cheese and purple grapes (my fav) or with peaches is super yummy!

Try the 4% milk fat large curd cottage cheese. I agree the 1-2% is nasty. I have tried all brands and like Dean's large curd cottage cheese the best. It is more like real cheese. Before my surgery I only at Cottage cheese with pineapple. But now I like it just plain. I actually measure out my 1/2 cup portion, then eat it right from the measuring cup (why dirty a bowl)?

I had to laugh, I've eaten probably 80 % of my food from a 1/2 cup measure ever since my surgery! (over 5 months ago)

I add low sugar fruit cocktail, so much better.

On the savory side, I like finely diced green onions, celery and sometimes carrots -- also chopped fresh tomatoes with kosher salt and pepper (also good with a seasoned salt and/or pepper)

I mix 1/2 cup of Daisy (tastes better than other brands) cottage cheese with 1-2 tablespoons of reduced sugar Craisins and love it. I usually have it for at least 1 if not 2 meals per day.

Cottage cheese with regular salsa or mango salsa very good. I sometimes add cinnamon, nutmeg and a packet of stevia.

Cottage cheese with canned tuna or chicken

I eat the cottage cheese that comes with pineapple and then mix my black cherry Greek yogurts in it. I hated cottage cheese prior to this

I blended cottage cheese and sugar free jello. nom nom

I like savory (not sweet) cottage cheese. I add powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury unflavored Protein powder and it DOUBLES the protein...
