I've having more tooth work done here in the near future (starting today). They're finally going to fix the one that they should have pulled last time, but pulled the wrong one (and fractured my jaw/tooth socket among other things).
I've just recently tried cottage cheese for the first time (yes, it's true) and I see a fair amount of large curd 4% in my near future, since it's soft and pretty tasty.
Tonight I tried sriracha (with an avocado, too). Sriracha has it's place but not on cottage cheese, IMO. What kinds of seasoning do people put on their cottage cheese? Savory suggestions, no fruit, please. Something I can taste over the pain killers.

No fruit??? That is the best way to eat cottage cheese. It is great with canned peaches or pears.
Well, that kills a buncha great stuff. If I'm out of fruit, I just sprinkle a little coarse ground black pepper. Forget the salt. Most cottage cheese is already too salty, though I think I recently saw some no-salt cottage cheese.

Dayam! There's a lawsuit in your future?

I drain most of the whey/cream from my cottage cheese. That removes a lot of the salt since the salt is not added to the curd itself, but rather afterwards.

Mrs Dash seasoning salt isn't bad My Daddy used to add mayo to cottage cheese, I don't know why, then coarse ground pepper a bit of crabmeat pulsed in the processor
good luck
I hate dental work with a passion. Probably has something to do with not being able to have local anesthetics.

Well, not really. I finally wrote the formal complaint this last weekend (as the tooth started hurting once again) and sent it on Monday (yesterday). The director of the clinic called me today at work and informed me that the dentist who did the initial work took his own life just last week.
I had been holding off writing that complaint for months. I'm glad a waited another week (since I had to write it sometime). Sure, I could probably sue the clinic, but in light of recent events... It just wouldn't be right. That would be a Morrow Move. The dentist had a localized form of cancer.
They've offered to fix it. I figure when I'm 90, at least I'll still have at least this one tooth left.

Dill weed. Maybe a little onion powder?
Fresh would be a possibility. I don't do dried onion or dill. Or rarely, I should say. I'm trying to think of other soft things I can mix with it, too.

Italian Seasoning (do diced tomatoes count as fruit?)
I'll keep thinking .... Carol
Not bad. I might have to warm it up, though. And add some pasta ... and tomatoes and garlic and parmesan cheese and black olives ...
Tomatoes are a good idea - those I eat, but technically a fruit. Parmesan cheese and olives, too, if I warm it up a bit. I'm new to cottage cheese - Does it heat well or just separate?

I like it with dill as well; I also like it with green pepper strips/dice -- Change Cujo to Juno in email address.

Paprika goes nicely, as does fresh black pepper. I also like garlic and/or onion powder, and/or celery salt. (not necessarily all at once) Hubby likes to make what he calls 'cottage cheese salad' which consists of cottage cheese, shredded cheese, and Ranch dressing. I don't eat it that way, but he claims it's the best thing ever. I also like to make tuna salad (no celery for you, I'm guessing) and put a scoop of that and a scoop of cottage cheese on some shredded lettuce... maybe slice up a hard-boiled egg to go with that. It's not bad with hummus, either... not necessarily mixed together, but eaten along with.

TFM® usually grinds black pepper on his and he chops up tomatoes in it, too. That's about as savory as we get. (But we both love the large curd - full fat, of course!)

I've eaten it heated, but haven't been excited about the results. It's been quite awhile, so I don't remember the particulars.
BUT ... I've thought of something else that's good on cottage cheese. Cinnamon!
I don't know if the wounds in your mouth could handle it, but I'll bet Frank's hot sauce would be great with cottage cheese.

It separates a little. Think of it as kind of a chunkier ricotta. Use it as you would ricotta.
