People told me to add pineapple or peaches to it and I thought that sounded absolutely disgusting and weird. I finally tried 100% juice canned peaches (minus the juice) and I was pleasently surprised! The peaches took of the flavor of the cottage cheese. I have come to realize after a few more experiments that cottage cheese is kind of like tofu. It takes on the flavor of whatever you add to it. If you add a stronger texture to it, the cottage cheese texture kind of disappears or becomes unnoticable.
I recently tried cottage cheese with diced apples and absolutely loved it! I added some walnuts and it become one of my new favorite snacks/meals! It's quick, easy, cheap, and tastes good too! If you are like I once was towards cottage cheese, please give this a try! You might be as surprised as I was!
*Tip: Do not ever buy kraft brand cottage cheese, you will want to spit it out and possibly get sick to your stomach. Also, don't buy fat-free, get low fat instead. Fat-free contains more sugars to compensate for flavor.
