RE: What tastes good with cottage cheese?

kenzie · Chanel

Ick! I hate cottage cheese, but my grandmother loved the stuff. She used to eat it with apple butter, pear butter or pumpkin butter.

On a side note, I am a little curious as to the tuna, tomatoes and cottage cheese idea. I kind of want to try it, but I'm a little apprehensive.

I like it on a bed of baby spinach, topped with corn kernels, salsa, crushed crackers and loads of freshly ground pepper. YUM!!!

My mom has a fabulous recipe for vegetarian lasagna. Sometimes, she replaces 1/2 the ricotta cheese with cottage cheese (you have to drain as much of the liquid out before you add it). She actually just told me that over the years (when I was growing up & ate meat), she replaced the 1/2 the ricotta w/cottage cheese in her meat lasagna, but NEVER TOLD US. We never knew! It is much healthier (and lower in fat) than ricotta and you can't tell the difference.

I love cottage cheese and eat it all the time. I have two ways:

1. with sweetener and cocoa powder (perfect chocolatey treat)

2. with salt and chopped up green onion or scallions

Add a spoon of jam.

I used to be sickened at the sight of cottage cheese, and then I decided to try it because my friend in high school convinced me to. To make a long story short, I grew to like it a lot. I love it with canned peaches, and pineapples especially. I recently tried it with banana slices and blueberry pancakes - yumm!

I love the texture! I add it to peaches, strawberries, and salad.
