Cottage cheese is such an awesome idea to use instead, I am making this tomorrow…. Thank you Protein chef for all your fantastic recipes😊

    • @joseadriano4515
      @joseadriano4515 3 місяці тому

      I use Greek yogurt but then it weeps and makes a puddle on the salad, I’m going to give cottage cheese a try, great idea and delicious looking salad.

    • @Coolbreeze589
      @Coolbreeze589 3 місяці тому

      I like both equally, I’ll opt for Greek yogurt for lower sodium or cottage cheese for savory.

    What about Greek yogurt instead of the mayo? (Or premake some mayo with Greek yogurt. I think you have a recipe for that as well, right?) Thanks for this. I love cottage cheese and will definitely make and eat this one. Cheers.

    Mine had diced leftover home-cooked chicken, fat free cottage cheese, celery, apple, crushed almonds, S&P, smoked paprika, a dash of cinnamon and a tsp of honey mustard.
    Had on it two slices of high fiber/lower carb bread- delish! I'll be having this again (and again) with different fixin's. Next time: salsa, olives and cheddar..

    What does high volume eating mean Does it mean pigging out

    • @SkyZer0
      @SkyZer0 3 місяці тому +2

      no, because you could technically pig out on smaller volume foods as well. like, snack-sized portioned foods. high-volume versions of eating involve low, calorie dense foods (veggies, fruits, proteins, reduced fat dairy, defatted products). a lot of food, for not a lot of (digestible) calories.
      example: 2 CUPS of lowfat cottage cheese = 180kcal vs. 2 TABLESPOONS of Mayonnaise = 180kcal

  • @Patti-1962
    @Patti-1962 3 місяці тому

    I absolutely hate mayonnaise, and use Greek yogurt instead. I also love cottage cheese, and struggle to get enough protein each day. I am on a strict diet due to a very painful bladder disease, Interstitial Cystitis, which has progressed through the years, and is very painful now that I am 61. This is a recipe that I can eat, without some of the mix-ins. Thank you and you can make all the cottage cheese videos you'd like, and I'll be watching!! 362 grams

    Well, if this works, then easy adaptation is to add to tuna salad. already use 3 eggs to 1 can tuna, so cottage cheese would up the protein too!

      @jmancherjeee 3 місяці тому

      I agree it was confusing, it would have been good to know how much per serving, and not show the calories with the sandwich. Its 1256 calories for the whole batch of chicken salad (not the sandwich). His site says it's 4 servings so each serving is 314calories with 34.5g protein. Very solid macros
