I love cottage cheese. It's one of my favorite foods. At any giving time I have two or three different kinds in my fridge. Theoretically, I eat it because it is a great source of lean protein, since I lift practically every day. In reality, I eat it because I just can't get enough of the creamy goodness. Normally, I strive for portion control and only eat a couple of teaspoons at a time. But on Sunday mornings I allow myself to indulge - cottage cheese is the only thing I eat for breakfast. And I eat as much I want.
I am not exactly sure why cottage cheese has some kind of stigma attached to it in US. But I know that you should definitely eat more of it. It doesn't hurt that some varieties are calcium fortified, which is great for your bones. In addition, cottage cheese it a very versatile food. It pairs with so many other flavors and can be used in many dishes. These are a couple of my suggestions. What's yours like?
