Cottage cheese is a lot like CrossFit in that you either love it or you hate it. But there are way more reasons to love cottage cheese than hate it — at least nutritionally speaking. "Cottage cheese is incredibly high in protein, as well as calcium, while being low in fat," says Taub-Dix. Indeed, just one cup of cottage cheese has 25 grams of protein, while ringing up at just about 200 calories.
If you're craving a savory snack, she suggests mixing in some French-onion-soup powder mix and topping with tomatoes (yep, that's a fruit) and/or chives. Meanwhile, if you are craving something sweet, cottage cheese pairs well with pineapple and honey, or fresh peach and mint.
