    I wish I could give double star points for this! I have to say this little gem saved my SB breakfast routine! Not a cottage cheese fan, but I swear this was like a little bowl of Heaven! I was so disappointed when I took my last bite! Thank you soooo much for sharing this amazing recipe!!! - 1/26/11

    so glad I found you're recipe! Day 5 of SouthBeach and I couldn't stand the thought of eggs again, this hit the spot. I did add a splash of vanilla & 3 splenda packets and it was fabulous. I'm so grateful right now!!! - 7/17/11

    I love this, since my breakfast is between 5-6 am, it also saved me, as by mid morning I was starved. I added 1/2 c. unsweetened applesauce to mine and used stevia for the sweetener, So far the only breakfast, that I've been able to come up with that will hold me over till noon - 4/6/11

    Loved this; both quick, easy and simple, What more can you ask for in a healthy breakfast that's great for those late mornings, or any morning for that matter. Did not add the Splenda; did not see the need for it. Will also add fruits to it as well, since I love fruit with my cottage cheese. - 10/31/10

    Great idea for a quick snack or breakfast! I don't use faux sweeteners so added half a tsp of sugar, which I added to my nutrition tracker. I also added a dash of nutmeg. I might try adding vanilla next time. It is like eating rice pudding! Half a serving was plenty for me. - 2/10/13

    Great tasty snack full of protein. Quick to make. I didn't add the Splenda. Didn't see the need for adding sweetness. - 1/10/09

    1-18-15: Added 1/4 cup Fiber One cereal for more fiber in this dish. Interesting flavor, but needs a little something more. Maybe experiment with different seasonings for savory vs sweet (this was not very sweet w/1 pkt Splenda, maybe add pineapple, too for sweet) - 1/18/15

    Great recipe, simple and very tasty. Thanks - 7/16/13
  • RUDY1003
    Not at all what I expected.
    It was GOOD! I'll be the first to admit "I don't like cottage cheese" but this tasted more like rice pudding. It was because of the chopped nuts that I could tolerate the texture.
    Very simple to make. And a good change to the usual cereal or eggs. A keeper! - 5/10/13

    I LOVE this recipe. It makes me feel like I am being very decedent AND it is filling. This will be a recipe that gets used a lot. It's a great break from eggs, too. - 1/26/13

    This recipe is great and a nice change from eating eggs all the time. Just be careful. The nutrition info is based on using 10 almonds, not 1/4 C or about 135 calories. - 1/2/13
