Best cottage cheese: Cabots
second best: Nancy's

This is almost exactly what I had for dinner last night (too hot to cook). Cottage cheese, nectarines and some blueberries. I sprinkle a little vanilla powder on top too.

Summer staple.

p.s. for those who don't like cc for the texture, try zipping it through the blender

this is one of my favorite things ever.
like, ever.
it was the best thing in the world to come home to after school. a plate of halfed peaches filled with cottage cheese that our mom sat in front of us.

oh, the goodness.

Nancy's cultured cottage cheese! My all time favorite and addition to everything. Nancy's is cultured whereas the other brands are rennet set, thus Nancy's has very little lactose and tastes wonderful on peaches, papaya and melons in fact all fruit. I mix it with my tuna for sandwiches, top potatoes with it, add it to green salads and stir it into my hot cereal. Oh yum...cottage cheese.

Cabots on the East Coast (I have only seen this at Trader Joe's)

Knudsen on the West Coast

Weird, I have never seen cottage cheese with canned fruit. Is it an American thing? I'm partial to cottage cheese on its own.

I ate lots of cottage cheese growing up, but I never thought to eat it with fruit. My husband introduced me to applesauce cottage cheese, and now I love it.

I buy Daisy's in Texas, Knudsen's on the West coast.

I like it best with diced fresh tomatoes. Yum! I've had it with fruit, and it's okay, but it's not something I'd go out of my way to eat, since I prefer it to be savory.

I like it plain but I add salt to it.

this is one of my favorite breakfasts! I usually go with whatever organic cottage cheese is available locally--either horizon or organic valley.

oh man, i have to say i would love to like this combo, but it kind of makes me cringe. esp. the canned peaches part... but to each her/his own!

i love cottage cheese (whatever is around, small curd lowfat), mixed with tons of fresh herbs, chopped seeded cukes, celery, red bell pepper and whatever other veggies spooned over fresh sliced tomatoes with lots of salt and pepper. yum.

I don't care much for canned peaches, but I LOVE the juice from canned peaches----poured over sliced bananas and cottage cheese. Just try it; you won't believe how good it is.

I love cottage cheese and fruit! Once a week my sleep-away camp dining hall served it for lunch. Everyone used to complain but I loved it. I eat cottage cheese with melon for breakfast quite often.

It sounds a little strange, but I love roasted, salted sunflower seeds on cottage cheese. I think I started doing it in college when the same old things in the cafeteria started to get boring.

Ooh, I love cottage cheese and strawberries, blueberries, etc. but never thought to try it w/peaches (duh!).

Oh, and Daisy's (of sour cream fame) makes cottage cheese!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I mix in applesauce or apple butter to my cottage cheese.

I always loved cottage cheese and black olives.
