Cottage Cheese Scramble

First, take out a bowl and crack 3 eggs into it. Beat your eggs until your yolks are fully broken up or however you like your scrambled eggs.

Next, use the stove or griddle and scramble your eggs. Keep your eggs moving at all times as you cook them and your end result will be delicious, fluffy scrambled eggs!

Pour your scrambled eggs into another bowl and mix in 1/2 cup of fat free cottage cheese, a pinch of black pepper, some chopped up chives, and anything else you want.

I’m topping mine with some hot sauce today but think outside the box and this one will never get old. Add in other vegetables, use different sauces, herbs, spices, and so on!

That’s it, you now have a healthy cottage cheese scramble in just minutes. This healthy cottage cheese recipe might be quick but it also packs over 30 grams of protein!

Cottage Cheese Dessert

This recipe is one that has gotten me through multiple diets. It’s something I’ve ate almost every night before bed for the past couple of and no, I’m still not sick of it!

The slow digesting casein in the cottage cheese and fats in the peanut butter keep the hunger cravings away which makes dieting that much easier.

All you need for it is a bowl, 1/2 cup of fat free cottage cheese, 1 tablespoon of peanut or other nut butter, 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and some optional protein powder.

Mix everything together and BOOM, you now have a COTTAGE CHEESE DESSERT!

This healthy cottage cheese recipe has around 20 grams of protein without protein powder. I usually add in around a scoop of vanilla or chocolate protein powder which easily doubles the protein.

If you want to take this up another level you can throw it in the fridge or freezer for a bit. It’ll thicken up like soft serve ice cream!

Cottage Cheese Fluff

This last healthy cottage cheese recipe is something you can use as either a healthy topping or as a calorie friendly dessert.

All you need is a food processor and 4 ingredients which you’ll put right into your food processor.

Add into your food processor 1 cup of fat free cottage cheese, 4 ounces of a whipped topping, 1 cup of frozen strawberries or other fruit, and 1 scoop of your choice flavor protein powder.

Process everything together until you have your cottage cheese fluff! Depending on how powerful your food processor is, it should start to fluff up after around 1-2 minutes.

Top it with some crushed up graham crackers, fresh strawberry slices, and sugar free chocolate chips!

Not a fan of cottage cheese? Seriously, don’t be scared to try it again with any of these healthy cottage cheese recipes! I hate plain cottage cheese by itself but LOVE it in almost any recipe.
