What can I do with...cottage cheese?



Recommended Posts

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!

shriracha, curry powder, pumpkin or sunflower seeds(FULL FOODS! be careful with seeds, chew really well or grind in a spice mill), mixed into a scrambled egg with salsa, mixed into diced chicken and dried cranberries as a chicken salad.< /p>

OMG I have to laugh, I was reading this as a recipie rather than a list of different suggestions and was taken aback--Was considering maybe trying the odd combination but the volume of it all know you added the egg AND the chicken...LOL...and now on early could all that together be termed a chicken salad?

I think I need some sleep!

I wanted to update with my latest variation of cottage cheese.

I got some packets of organic Mediterranean dip mix. I have mixed some into my cottage cheese lately and it is really tasty.

Hey Inner Surfer, do you have a brand name on the dip mix? I would like to try that, sounds good

Simply Organic Greek Yogurt Dip Mix in Mediterranean Herb. I haven't tried it in plain Greek yogurt yet but I will (probably with cucumber). It is really good in cottage cheese.

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?

I can't eat it.

There are few foods that I don't truly enjoy.....I'm cursed that way. Cottage cheese, however, is one that I can live the rest of my days and never eat again.

I don't know why I'm like that, but I can't stand the stuff.

My list of foods that I'll never eat:

Cottage cheese

Bologna

any organ: liver, gizzards, etc

green peas

Foods that I love:

Damn near everything else...............

Babbs, how soon after surgery did you start eating tomato? I love tomatoes and surgeon said soft veggies are okay, just curious.

My favorite thing is to add a drop of vanilla, 1/2 a Splenda and some diced strawberries or some blueberries. Tastes like cheesecake if you close ur eyes:)

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.
