Exchange the creamy cucumber salad dressing for real cucumbers and then you are really set for a healthy snack that will keep in the fridge! - 7/20/09

sounds interesting. I may even add some veggies of my own...shredded carrots, diced zucchini, maybe some tomatoes! - 7/20/09

Why dressing? chopped cucumber is crunchier and I dn't use salad dressing except for vinegar/olive oil. - 7/20/09

I've been making a version of this for years. I just mix in tomatoes (minus the seeds), and any crunchy veggies in the fridge. I can see the dressing working. If you aren't getting enough fat in your diet, that would be a way to get some in. I've never used it but might try it sometime. - 7/21/09

How very versitile! Never thought of eating it this way! will eliminate the dressing and use the veggies instead. BTW, have others eaten FF cottage cheese w/splenda & cinnamon as a dessert? Yum! - 7/20/09

CC is a great source of protein. However, it is acidic to the blood stream (the problem with mixing w/fruit - it turns to sugar!). Balance the acidity with alkalizing veggies (tomatoes, cucumbers,etc.) for a great breakfast! Energizing, you won't crash from the carbs... Add avo for the good fats! - 12/4/09

I love cucumbers.....A great low calorie fill you up kind of snack or with you meal. I sometimes only season them with greek seasoning and a touch of splenda. Sometimes I use low fat yogurt as the dressing with onions as well. Versatile in so many ways. - 7/20/09

I love Cottage Cheese fat free sometimes I just put it on rye toast or pumpernickel toast and eat it for breakfast.

This is a good started for home made dressing, to cc add some red onion, real cucumbers, not the dressing, chill over night, pour over a bed of greens add tomatoes! - 7/21/09

This sounds like a nice change of pace. I never eat peppers --they make my mouth break out -- but the idea of crunch veggies is nice.
I usually add either crushed pineapple or sliced canned peaches to my cottage cheese. - 7/20/09
