You wouldn't guess these delicious cottage cheese recipes are high in protein, low in carbs, healthy and easy to make!
Cottage cheese has made a comeback, and we're quite happy about it! It makes sense—it’s a healthier dairy product that’s high in protein, low in fat, and lower in calories. Plus, cottage cheese is relatively low in carbs, so it can easily be incorporated into a low-carb or keto diet.
While not everyone loves the taste (we happen to love it!), you may not even notice it in recipes where it replaces cream cheese, yogurt, or sour cream. We love adding cottage cheese to high-protein bowls, dips, sauces, and desserts for a deliciously creamy texture—plus, it’s packed with protein and low in calories!
These low-carb cottage cheese recipes are delicious, filling, protein-packed and easy to make!
