POTD - Cottage cheese and peaches


POTD - Cottage cheese and peaches
©2011 Kristin Corlett

I know this isn't a dish that everyone will love, but cottage cheese and peaches are one of my favorite snacks.  I had forgotten about it for a long time and rediscovered it a few weeks ago.  I also like cottage cheese with mixed fruit, pineapple or pears...but peaches are my favorite.  I buy the little snack packs in fruit juice and I pour the whole thing in the dish.  Cottage cheese has 13grams of protein in just a 1/2 c serving.  I had forgotten it was so high in protein!  Yummy goodness and protein to boot!

I took this photo outside on my patio.  I put the bowl of goodness on the little step stool/chair that was my Grandmother Corlett's.  

Enjoy!

I thought twice before coming over here after reading the title. I hate cottage cheese except I heard it might be found in lasagna which I like. So if it is in that great pasta dish, I'm not listening. What I don't know won't hurt me.

Yum! I used to love cottage cheese, but for some reason it just hasn't tasted the same to me after my pregnancy. Stupid hormones :/

It looks delicious. Growing up my grandmother would make fruit dumplings. They would be boiled. Then we would put dry cottage cheese (hard to find now) and butter & sugar on them. It was to die for.
