Anyone have any ideas on what to add to cottage cheese that is low carb?  I know fruit is good - but I need low carb?

I heard that people add SF Torani syrup?

I had a stepmother that would put sourcream and chives in her cottage cheese.

You can also add cinnamon, vanilla, and stevia/spenda. Or here is a recipe for a "Mock Cheesecake" You can use SF strawberry or any flavor jello you like.

2c fat free cottage cheese
1 small box of sugar free jello
1/2c boiling water

Mix gelatin with boiling water until dissolved.
Put cottage cheese in blender and add dissolved gelatin to it.
Blend until creamy looking.
Put in container and chill until firm.

 I may just try this.   I despise the taste of cottage cheese....but this sounds pretty good!!

I also like cinnamon, or eating cottage cheese with any of the red SF jellos (cherry, strawberry etc). I also like cottage cheese with berries - blackberry, blueberries raspberry or strawberries- Berries are low carb, & you don't need too many to make the cottage cheese taste great.

Oh my goodness..mock cheesecake sounds yummy!

I sometimes eat cottage cheese with salsa.

Thanks Kelly L for the recipe!  Sounds great.  I agree with Chanciekd and don't like the taste of plain cottage cheese and was wondering how to include it in my diet.  I was also told to blend cottage cheese, flavored yogurt and coolwhip together (all fat free sugar free of course!).  Will try your reicpe first.  My surgery will be March 1......2 weeks from today!

Try the CC with any flavor of sf jello powder like lime or orange then mix in the sf coolwhip.  And when you are further out from surgery add a small spoonful of crushed pineapple...no sugar added of course.  It is an awesome desert.

Might be the hillbilly in me but I've always put Lawry's Seasoned Salt on mine. I love it. I've always been a little weirded out/grossed out by the thought of fruit in cottage cheese.

How about Bacon Bits? or Mustard?

I love both! YUMMO

I put grated parmesan cheese in it (ups the protein even more!) and mix in some spaghetti sauce when my family has pasta. Also good for lunch!!

To a half-cup of cot cheese, I add a half-cup of blueberries (the only fruit I eat regularly), a couple spoonfuls of greek yogurt for extra protein, and hazelnut SF torani syrup.  Yummo!  I have this for breakfast nearly every day.

Ok this is going to sound crazy to some y'all but I HATE mayo so I sometimes combine tuna with SMALL CURD cotttage and lots of lemon and pepper.

My fav combo, and sometimes top it with A-1 sauce to kick it up a bit.

I don't like the taste of cottage cheese, but I make my protein shake every morning using cottage cheese.  Here is my recipe:

2 oz water
2 oz small curd cottage cheese
1 scoop Syntrax Nectar Chocolate Truffle protein

Blend til smooth

Add 1 + cup of ice
Blend until smooth

It's really good and thick - makes me full until lunch

 

I love cottage cheese, some of the things I add: tuna, salsa, blk. Pepper, s.f. Jello, worstershire sauce, hot sauce, yogurt, berries.
I also like some brands and not others. My fave is Knudsen lo fat.

Early out from surgery, I made two things with cottage cheese
Italian Bake
cottage cheese, ricotta cheese, spaghetti sauce w meat  and motzarella cheese

I also mixed up a packet of s/f lime jello, 16 oz cottage cheese, tub of s/f cool whip and drained crushed pineapple for something sweet.
