Cottage cheese is a life saver

Diet With Me

🥣 Breakfast:

1 cup Cottage cheese

3 eggs

Italian seasoning

Cheese (I used bread cheese from aldi)

I add cream cheese on side to dip with some garlic aioli

Honestly it taste so good. But what are you thoughts. I was a hater until I realized it’s really good

Cottage cheese is not just versatile; it’s also packed with nutrients! It contains casein protein, which digests slowly, helping you feel full longer and supporting muscle growth. Incorporating cottage cheese into your diet can enhance your protein intake—especially beneficial for those following a fitness regimen. Try it in various recipes beyond breakfast: blend it into smoothies for added creaminess, or use it as a flavorful base for dips. You can also add fruits or nuts for a refreshing snack. Many people overlook cottage cheese, but it's truly a superfood. Its creamy texture and mild flavor allow it to pair perfectly with both savory and sweet dishes. So next time you visit the grocery store, don’t forget to grab some cottage cheese!

Back in early 60’s, you couldn’t buy ricotta cheese in Japan. My dad would get cottage cheese and drain the water out in a cheesecloth. Then mix eggs,chopped parsley, salt and pepper on top of cooked lasagna noodles in a 13x9 inch pan, smothered in spaghetti sauce. It was a great substitute and it worked.

I need to eat more protein, this is a great idea 🍋❤️
