This recipe sustained me for a week after having teeth extracted. You can't taste the cottage cheese, so it's just yummy while full of protein. I left off the shavings and the cookie, and it's still great.

Are you kidding me?? This is insanely good...an easy, no-bake pudding with a very respectable protein content. Don't know why nobody's tried this. I used 1% No-Salt-Added cottage cheese and it was still creamy and luscious - and probably less "salty"-tasting as a result. The next day it had thickened with refrigeration and was even better. I'm not sure how they arrived at the calorie count - mine was about 130 calories a serving, without the cookie. I'll be keeping this recipe handy and using it often.
