Delicious brekkie alternative (may be controversial!)

[Pineapple27]

Full fat cottage cheese 100g = 98 calories. Peaches (tinned, third of a tin, in juice rather than syrup) 65 cals.

That's 163 calories.

Yes, it sounds weird, but strangely quite delicious!

I am struggling with the idea of this... I will take your word for it I think!

[Pineapple27 in reply to EllaMidlands]

Haa haa, a bit of a Marmite thing going on...... I have awful childhood memories of cottage cheese as it always seemed to feature on any diet. But the stuff seems to have improved from then....

Yes, that's nice, I could go with that easily 🙂 I always liked a piece of cheddar with strawberry jam, the sharpness with the sweetness.

[Pineapple27 in reply to Chuckyegg]

Mmmmm, yes - turkey and cranberry, pork and apricot, etc!

You must have read my mind Pineapple27 I had a Tesco delivery today and as I was putting it away I had the cottage cheese in one hand and a can of peaches in the other and thought wow they would go well together, and what an easy breakfast to take to work tomorrow!

[Pineapple27 in reply to Fran182716]

Hope you enjoy it as much as I have been doing!

It would make a nice pudding too, I think I'll try that soon, thanks 😊

Very happy with the full-fat cottage cheese, lovely stuff. I just don't like tinned fruit. Maybe I would be able to cope with them if the cottage cheese is there. Worth thinking about!

Not weird at all! Cottage cheese+fruit or berries is my favourite breakfast Never tried it with canned fruit, though.

What an interesting combo. You can buy cottage cheese with pineapple in it, and I like that, so I would probably like this too, though maybe not for breakfast. I think you should give it a name!

[Pineapple27 in reply to JiminyCricket]

Maybe crumble a wheatabix on the top and name it "tropical cheesecake brekkie"

I love cheese and fruit- this will be one of my breakfasts next week. Try cottage cheese and blueberries!

[IndigoBlue61]

Not something I would ever have thought of but looks good 😊 Think I'll try it 😊 Thank you

[IndigoBlue61]

Ps I also like sliced apple with Philadelphia cheese 😊

[Pineapple27 in reply to IndigoBlue61]

Oooh, yes - or full fat soft cheese slathered into a stick of celery! Another great low calorie snack / meal that takes a lot of munching and crunching....

[Pineapple27 in reply to ary88]

I have a pack of kippers in the freezer (you've reminded me...) I think I'll enjoy those over the weekend!

I used to have cottage cheese and fruit for lunch every day when I was working. Quick, easy and yummy!

[Pineapple27 in reply to Grannynise]

...and nutritious too! I'm trying to avoid carb heavy meals - virtually cut all processed carbohydrates out....
