Cottage Cheese with a Twist

Do you dislike the texture of cottage cheese? Or love cottage cheese but you don’t know what to do with it? Good news! We have a variety of creamy recipes that are lower in fat thanks to cottage cheese. The way we lowered the fat content of the recipes was by using Crowley Cottage Cheese instead of higher fat cheeses like whole milk ricotta, mozzarella, or cheddar.

Even non-cottage cheese lovers tell us that they enjoy our recipes that use Crowley Cottage Cheese. For example, our simple Cheesy Fruit Tart recipe has been sampled at events throughout New York State. The recipe calls for blending the cottage cheese so the tart filling is silky smooth and you can’t even tell that there is cottage cheese in the recipe. Read for yourself what some people had to say about this recipe:

“You’re right! It does not taste like there is cottage cheese in this. I can’t believe it.”

“This tastes too good to be good for you.”

“I thought I didn’t like cottage cheese but now that I have tried it this way, it is great. I’ll definitely make these again!”

Try our Cheesy Fruit Tart recipe. It will be a sure hit for your summer picnic.

Remember: If it is warmer than 90°F out, do not leave food out for more than one hour. If food is out longer than two hours, throw it out.

Keep your cooler in a shady spot, like under a shade tree, to aid in keeping the contents cold.
