My ‘becoming a cottage cheese lover’ journey so far... (which no-one asked for an update on but hoping it might inspire at least one person…! 😂)
I really want to up my protein consumption and keep calories under control… so eating more cottage cheese seems like a logical choice (34g protein & 188cals in one tub), but I don’t like it very much on its own, so I feel like I need to make friends with it!
I have it quite often on sweet chilli rice cakes as a mid afternoon snack, I’ll mix it with mango chutney and chuck it on a salad, I’ve mixed it into soup (gorgeous!!), curries and other meals… I’ve even tried the weetabix cheesecake recipe thing (not my fave!) but tonight I tried airfying it…
And it was LOVELY! Tasted like halloumi! So tasty. Will 100% be doing it again…!
But I wondered what else I might be missing?! Any cottage cheese hacks?! Haven’t tried the bread yet but I’m sure I will! 👌🏽🤪
If you’re struggling to get enough protein in and you love cottage cheese, you’re onto a winner! But if you’ve got any good cottage cheese recipes / ideas please do let me know!
