Food #7: Cottage Cheese
Cottage cheese is not only low in calories, but it is also low in fat and carbohydrates and rich in protein. A ½ cup of cottage cheese contain 12 grams of protein at just 90 calories. Cottage cheese can easily be paired with honey, brown sugar, or any type of fruit.
It was suggested in one study that compared the filling effect of cottage cheese to other animal products that this high protein content is comparable to eggs and chicken breast. Thus, individuals who do not eat meat and are looking for a protein source could really benefit from adding cottage cheese to their diet.
