Yes, I used to be a cottage cheese hater too. Actually, I still don't care for it being a cold plain blob served on my plate. But honestly, cottage cheese IN recipes is a total game changer! You honestly can't taste it, plus it adds a high protein rich creaminess to basically everything you put it in. If you still don't trust me and don't want to add cottage cheese, it can be swapped 1:1 for low fat or full fat Greek yogurt (don't use nonfat since it's more tart), ricotta cheese, or even soft tofu. And I promise, you can't taste the tofu in egg bites either but they do turn out a little softer texture than cottage cheese.
