Cottage Cheese Recipe For Winter

2121

Cathlete
Hi everyone. I like to eat cottage cheese all summer, but it isn't as appetizing to me when it is cold weather. Does anyone have any recipes or ways to eat it warm? Thanks, Melissa
 
I slice an apple and microwave it with cinnamon and sweet n low brown sugar (splenda works too). After it gets soft and makes a little 'juice' - about a minute or less depending on your microwave - mix in your cottage cheese. I've not heated the cottage cheese, but the heat of the apple warms it some. Very yummy IMO at least.
 
I have been trying to find different ways to try cottage cheese since I don't like it with anything sweet. I've tried it with heated salsa and triscuits and it was really good.

I eat lots of Morning Star veggie burgers and instead of eating them on bread or a roll I eat them with a scoop of cottage cheese on top. I heat it up some so that the cottage cheese is warm too. YUM! :9
 
This will sound disgusting - but it's quite good. Old fashioned quaker oats, splenda, cinnimon, and cottage cheese. It's delicious.

I just found an easy interesting one in Muscle and Fitness.. even though it is not one that you warm up it it is "hot." I'm going to whip it up today. It is from Chris Carmichael's Fitness Cookbook (Lance Armstrong's Coach):

Mix 16 ounces fat-free cottage cheese with 3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce, 1 tablespoon bottled hot sauce, 2 chopped garlic cloves, one-quarter teaspoon ground ginger and one-quarter bunch sliced fresh chives. Serves four.

Nutrition facts (depends on cottage cheese):
1/2 cup
80 cals
16 grams protein
4 grams carbs

It looks like something I can dip some veges into. I'll let you know how it tastes.

It only took 2 minutes to make (I used jarred chopped garlic and Cholula Hot Sauce)...I like it, but I enjoy "spicy" foods now and then. Honestly, it is not "over the top hot" or I wouldn't eat it. I'm sure if you use a hotter sauce it could be;). I do recommend you add the fresh chives (as I did) last so you can decide how much of that flavor you prefer (a little bit seems to go a long way flavor wise).

Enjoy,

Thanks for the replies, I will try them this week. I forgot about making it as a dip. Over the summer, I just mixed fruit in it. What would I do without cottage cheese in my diet?! Melissa
 
I have been trying to think of something to add to oats that could go with a baked apple with splenda and cinnamon to make it like apple crisp and cottage cheese is just the thing!
Thanks for the idea!

Hey, Lorrie--that's what I do, too, except I use dark honey, not Splenda. Sometimes I add almond slivers to it all.
