Why is Low-Fat Cottage Cheese a Good Snack?
Cottage cheese is high in protein, making it filling. It has lots of calcium and other important nutrients. It has a mild creamy flavor that pairs well with fruits or vegetables.
The texture of cottage cheese has always been an issue for me but when you blend it until smooth, it has a super creamy texture that is easy to enjoy.
