When I was starting off almost 8 months ago (I know crazy right?), someone told me a great way to get protein in my diet was cottage cheese. Now your reaction is probably exactly the same as mine was then, "Cottage cheese?!? But it's lumpy and gross!" I gave it a try anyways. At first I couldn't have it just plain, so I would add some granola. Then one day I had this wonderful idea of putting cinnamon in it and fell in love (sorta). It was really good. That with blueberries on top, even better. I recently tried eating it plain and now that I'm used to the taste and texture I find that it goes well on it's own too! I topped it with strawberries and peaches and decided it was time to make a post about it (mind you not before taking a few bites).
Now I'm not trying to tell you that every single brand of cottage cheese is good. I've tried a bunch and Sealtest tends to always make the top of my list. It has bigger chucks and is far less liquidy than others.
Verdict: Great for adding some protein to your diet (15g of protein per 1/2 cup).
