Cottage cheese + tuna

[maroon]

So... This idea just hit me. Anyone tried it?

I'm giving it a go tonight for my pre-bedtime snack. 1 x can of tuna emptied into tub of cottage cheese. Mix with a fork
Protein bomb!

I'm hopeful!

that doesn't sound appetizing.

[TempestTenor]

Holy crap, you're on. I'm so trying this tonight =)

[maroon]

Success!! This worked so well and I'm so excited. It will be much easier to eat my tuna and cottage cheese now

Let me know how you found it Tempest.

How big of a "tub" are we talking about here? Like a brand new 16oz/2cup tub of cottage cheese?

[TempestTenor]

Well, I'm going for it as we speak...I dumped a can of tuna into a full 2cup tub of cottage cheese. I don't think I can choke this down as a "snack"...this is going to have to be my dinner replacement =)

It's pretty good actually. The soft texture of the cheese mellows out the dry, hard texture of the tuna. The the taste of tuna complements the faint saltiness of the cheese as well. I like it! Great idea!

Sweet!

For my test-snack I just used half a can of tuna and roughly half of my cottage cheese tub. In total it worked out to about 3/4 of a coffee sized cup of cottage cheese + tuna.

I agree. The texture is really good and the tastes go really well together. Just stirred it a bit with a fork before eating.

Awesome Wonder why I never thought of this before. I will probably keep this as a snack or perhaps breakfast since it's so convenient. I've been slacking with the tuna because I really disliked eating it by itself or on plain brown bread. This way it's quite nice to eat. Cool that you liked it too, means that it's not just me being an all-eating fatty as usual

How about washing it down with a large glass of olive oil? Grosssssssssssssss.

Well, since two of you like this, I will try it as a post-workout snack tomorrow after my shake. I'll go with a can of tuna into a cup of cottage and see how I like it.

Sounds like an express version of my usual lunch. I add diced truss tomatoes and cucumber and toss tuna and cottage cheese through it and simply use the olive oil from the tuna as a dressing. It's actually freakin' delicious if you ask me.

god, i LOVE this...and i had totally forgotten all about this heavenly marriage!!! I used to eat this in college, alot...with fresh cracked blackpepper. Thanks for the reminder...i'll be trying it today with the tomato and cucumber....mmmmmm.

I have been doing this the last couple weeks. 1 pouch of tuna per 1/2 cup cottage cheese as my after lunch before dinner meal. That along with 1oz of raw almonds... Yumm-o

[mule]

this is my breakfast everyday!, i scoop it with some natural tortia chips, its great!

[dylanamus]

I've been eating the following almost every day for lunch and I haven't gotten remotely sick of it yet:

Diced continental cucumber, sliced truss tomato, diced spanish/red onion, sliced cup mushrooms, (sirena italian olive oil) tuna, cottage cheese and a dash of cracked pepper.

Mix it all together for even distribution...

Eat it!
