Healthy Swaps: Cottage Cheese Over Ricotta
Cottage cheese is an excellent substitute for ricotta cheese in many recipes. While their textures differ slightly, both cheeses offer a mild flavour and creamy consistency. Plus, cottage cheese is generally lower in fat and calories, making it a healthier alternative to ricotta. For a smoother consistency, simply blend the cottage cheese. This switch works wonderfully in dishes like lasagne, stuffed pasta, and certain desserts, providing a nutritious and satisfying option without compromising on taste or texture.
