Fat-free cottage cheese is a low-calorie, high-protein dairy product made by curdling and draining milk. Originating from Europe, it has become a staple in a variety of cuisines due to its mild flavor and versatility. With a smooth yet slightly lumpy texture, it is often used in salads, smoothies, baked dishes, or enjoyed on its own as a snack. Fat-free cottage cheese contains essential nutrients, including calcium, phosphorus, and B vitamins, which support bone health and energy metabolism. It is also a great source of lean protein, making it ideal for muscle repair and weight management. Although it is low in fat, some varieties may contain added sodium, so individuals watching their salt intake should check labels carefully. Its light and refreshing nature make it a popular choice for those seeking nutritious, low-fat options in their diet.
