Anyone out there ever try blending cottage cheese with whey for a before bed shake? I hate the taste of eating plain cottage cheese and would rather drink it if its descent mixed with whey and water.

I do it a couple of times a week. It makes a nice bedtime snack. I don't blend it though, I just mix in a scoop of flavored whey protien in a bowl of low fat cottage cheese.

i've got a few friends who do this.

scoop of whey, some cc, mix with spoon and enjoy.

I have tried it in shakes with whey and Milk, have not used with water though.
It tastes great in a whey/milk shake, just makes they consistency a little creamy, you wont even taste it really.

Awesome, thanks for the feedback guys. Im almost out of casein, and its really expensive here in Canada, so I might switch to this as an alternative when im tight on cash, Im gonna try it tomorrow.

i tried a couple of times and it sucked i did not like it at all, it did not mix well and I ended up with lumps of whey.

a better night snack or last meal which is what I've been doing since that experiment, mix peanut butter with your cottage cheese and some maple syrup and that tastes great... the peanut butter will increase your protein intake substantially and maples syrup adds good flavor.

I eat peanut butter before bed from time to time, whenever I need the extra cals. I could never eat maple syrup before bed though, its pure sugar, and Im fairly carb sensitive.

I just went and mixed one with water just to try it out. It definately didnt mix as well as it does with milk! If you are not Lactose sensetive I would go with the milk option, extra protein that way too. The maple syrup also has HFCS in it so not sure that would be a great option at bedtime, or anytime for that matter.

If you want to eat it outside of a shake, just sprinkle some cinamon and splenda (or Honey) and chow it down.

If you go the shake option I usually put natty peanutbutter, oats, whey, cottage cheese, and milk.

[Timmo]

The milk option will work fine for me right now. Im gonna try mixing one up with whey, milk, cottage cheese and natty peanut butter. Sounds like it would be descent taste wise, and those ingredients will fulfill my nutritional requirments nicely.

So i mixed some cottage cheese with natty peanut butter. it tasted pretty crap. I then added some whey protein (strawberry) to the mix. It turned into a big ball

I decided to just chuck it in the blender and add some pure pineapple juice. Gave it a little zap and it tastes pretty good now
