Hi Lessara (Kassie)

I admit I had to haul out my Atkin's book to check on cottage cheese. In Chapter 8 cottage cheese is listed as a free food (of course always choosing the highest fat you can find). I do not have the most recent edition and do not know if CC has been removed as a free food.

Anyway, once Induction is over, the good Dr allows sugar free desserts. If artificial sweeteners don't stall you, then go ahead and enjoy.

Hi ya princess_K ,

I froze this cheesecake once but didn't really like the texture so I've never frozen it again. I froze it in 1/8 serving sizes and found myself eating 2 pieces at a time, so I figured Why bother?? Sometimes I eat a batch up in just 2 days, and at the other extreme, I once tossed out half a cheesecake because I'd forgotten it was in the fridge, and I didn't dare try a piece because I was sure the cottage cheese has gone past the 'best by: date'. Blech! there's nothing worse than sour cottage cheese, based on 1 memorable experience about 22 yrs ago. One taste of that nasty sour mess & I couldn't eat cc for about 4 years. OY!

I'm off to go have a piece of mandarin orange jello cheesecake for my bedtime snack.

..........later

I tried the lime version, with some strawberry coulis layered in the middle, and a little more strawberry coulis and some fresh strawberries layered on top. At first the green colour turned me off, but the taste! It is so light though that it is easy to eat too much. I froze a small amount last night (I forgot to take it out of the car) so I'm going to try that with lunch today. Thank you for this!!!!!

Hi,

This recipe sounds great and I would like to make the strawberry coulis to put on the top

Could someone tell me what reduced sugar is? Is it something you buy or make?

TIA,
Magic

I'm so glad I found this . I have a get together planned Friday and I always bring dessert. I think I will try lemon with fresh strawberries.

OMG I made this on the weekend and it was AMAZING!!!!!

I did make a mistake when converting oz to grams and doubles the cream cheese content but it still formed well and was just extra creamy but I would next time use a continental cottage cheese style (without lumps) cause I nearly burnt up my electric hand beater trying to get the lumps out

thank you so much for the recipe it is going to be a regular on my list of must makes I took it to a dinner party for dessert and drizzled some passionfruit over the top for the non LC'ers and they all loved it

thanks again

I made this recipe with ricotta instead of cottage cheese. It saved both on time and carbs. Came out really good too!

After all of these months.......

I can't belive that I had to come here to get this recipe again. There was a time that I had it memorized and made it at least once a week, sometimes more if I was being generous and giving slices away. Haven't made one in months, though I've been threatening for weeks now. Tonight is going to be the night. I want to take it with me to the manager's meeting I have to attend in the morning!

For those of you wanting a little more zip to this: add a package of sugar free Kool-Aid when you dissolve the jello in boiling water. You still get the sweetness from the jello, but get the tartness from the Kool-Aid. Use lemon lime koolaid with lime jello, lemon with lemon, cherry with cherry,etc etc etc. I often use this when I make jello blocks(SF Jello, Knox gelatin, Kool-Aid). I pour it in an 8X8 pan, let it set, then cut in blocks. Great snack.

Made this as Mom's "birthday dessert" as a cake is out of the question (little town no low carb anything here)....
It was GREAT !!!!
This is going to be the new once a month treat in this household!

Thanks!

Cheers!

Azure, what jello flavor do you use for the white chocolate rasberry cheesecake? You mentioned the davinci but not the jello choice.

PJ

Raspberry, of course I need to make this again soon. I made a strawberry/lemon one a couple of weeks ago, but white cocolate raspberry is still my favorite.

A Zillion thanks!!! I was really keeping my fingers crossed thatI would find a cheescake recipe and here it is

Now I just have to get further intp the program

*happy happy Happy*

I tried this today , but I substituted the whipping cream with whipped topping, I hope I didnt blow the carbs , I haven't quite figured out how to do all the counting, but whipped topping only has 2 carbs per tablespoon.
I used 3 large tbs.
I used strawberry banana sf jello..YUMM!
