"When I switched from regular to low-fat cottage cheese, I was disappointed with the taste, says Traci Hirstein of Western Springs, Illinois. "So I pulled out this recipe my mother gave me years ago. With this jazzed-up version of light cottage cheese, I don't miss the fat at all. Serve it with canned tuna and a few crackers for a great light lunch.

  • Use high-quality herbs: Fresh or dried herbs will both work well in this recipe, but fresh herbs will give you the most vibrant flavor.
  • Don't overmix: Once you add the herbs and seasonings to the cottage cheese, mix gently until just combined. Overmixing will make the cottage cheese too runny.
  • Chill before serving: Allow the herbed cottage cheese to chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will help the flavors to meld and develop.
