Whipped cottage cheese?
I used cottage cheese and ricotta as a "base" for a lot of things, post op. I bought the regular kind and mixed it up with my hand immersion blender. I mixed it with sugar free jams, protein powders, Italian herbs... you name it!

I have tried the Nordica Salted Caramel whipped cottage cheese. It was pretty good, but higher in calories and carbs than Greek yogurt.

Before WLS, I used to put cottage cheese in a blender and let is get smooth and put in some strawberry SF jello made with 1/4 to 1/2 the water for SF cheesecake. It's been a long time and maybe there was more to the recipe - but if I made it, it was easy.
I would think that it would work post WLS. I don't know if you buy whipped cottage cheese - I just putit in the blender.
In week 1-4 post WLS, just plain cottage cheese with a spoonful of spagetti sauce was great - nuked it for WLS lasagna.
Good luck,

If you can't find it... I haven't seen it yet in my stores... just toss regular cottage cheese in a mini food processor and whiz it up. It will get smooth.
I make a feta & cottage cheese dip that is done that way and it's fluffy: http://theworldaccordingtoeggface.blogspot.com/2011/02/oscar -noshing.html you can see the texture in the picture.
That looks amazing. Adding it to my shopping list for tonight. Thanks for another wonderful idea!

I had to blend my food for 2 weeks after I was cleared for that step in my surgical PO.
I purposely bought a small CuisineArt chopper/grinder and used that for my blended food. It might be the same as "whipped". I think whipped means that it should be smooth and that is what my small appliance did. I also had to blend scrambled eggs, egg salad, tuna and hot foods. By the way I still have the gadget and use it for nuts, grinding things into crumbs or other fine crumble types of things for recipes. So it did not just get bought, used for a short while and then tossed.
