WHAT TO EAT WITH COTTAGE CHEESE

Let us get creative!

• You can use it to replace mayonnaise or sour cream in recipes like salads, dips, and sandwiches to reduce the overall fat content while enjoying a rich flavor. 

• It can also be a healthier alternative to heavy cream or ricotta cheese in pasta sauce. Add it to Mac and Cheese or your next Alfredo.

•  Consider incorporating blended cottage cheese into your favorite dessert recipes if you enjoy sweet treats. Spread it on muffins, add it to pudding mix, or serve it as a fruit dip.

• It's similar to Crema Mascarpone. It's mild taste pairs well with fresh fruits like peaches or strawberries, making it an excellent cake filling.

WHY ARE PEOPLE BLENDING COTTAGE CHEESE?

Thanks to social media, this trend has been massive. You can easily take chunky cottage cheese (some don't love it) to a smooth, sweet cheesecake consistency or a tangy sour cream dip in 30 seconds!

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU BLEND COTTAGE CHEESE?

One of the key benefits of whipped cottage cheese is its smooth and creamy texture. This recipe is velvety and smooth, unlike traditional cottage cheese. The result is similar to that of thick Greek yogurt. Its creaminess also makes it an excellent base for dips and dressings.

STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS

• Place the cottage cheese in the high-speed blender, or food processor, or use an immersion blender.

• Start blending the mixture at a low speed and gradually increase the speed to high. Blend for at least 30 seconds. You might need to stop and scrape the sides of the blender and then continue. Blend until it is a creamy and smooth consistency.

• Transfer the blended cottage to a serving bowl. Get creative with your toppings or add-ins. The options are endless. Enjoy

IS BLENDED COTTAGE CHEESE HEALTHIER THAN CHEESE?

Yes, blended cottage cheese packs quite a punch in terms of nutrition. It is low in calories but high in protein, making it an ideal choice for those looking to maintain or build muscle mass. 

Additionally, it contains essential nutrients such as calcium, vitamin D, and phosphorus that support bone health. 

IS BLENDED COTTAGE CHEESE THE SAME AS RICOTTA?

Blended cottage cheese is not the same as ricotta cheese, although they share some similarities in terms of use in certain dishes. Ricotta is lumpy and has a mild and slightly nutty flavor, whereas cottage cheese is more tangy.

🪄 TIPS AND TRICKS

• Place the blended whipped cottage cheese back into the container for easy storage. 

• Using a high-fat cheese content yields a creamier texture.

• On a hot day, the creamed cottage cheese could start to melt. If serving it as a dip or a filling in a cake, keep it in the fridge until you are ready to serve it.
