I don’t know the last time I tried cottage cheese, before yesterday. But, it’s on the list of foods that is good to have both as part of my pre-op weight loss, and one of the first foods I can have post-op.
My aversion to it has been mostly phychological. When I was a kid, maybe 4th grade or so… we took a weekend trip down to see my mom’s friend in Albert Lea area… “Aunt Betty & Uncle Jim”. When we got back we discovered a bowl of mostly eaten cerel had been left out… and what was now left in the bowl looked like cottage cheese. After that, I couldn’t look at the stuff without that memory coming back to me.
This is based on my instant-oatmeal pancakes… the recipe for which is being tweeked over time and I’ll post in full here soon.
