I'm doing low carb. Made this tonight with hearts of palm pasta . Used low fat cottage cheese, added shrimp, and a few spritz of I can't believe it's not butter spray with the parm. The sauce itself reminded me of olive garden. ITS THAT GOOD!!! Thank you!!!
Excellent recipe. I am from India and we use cottage cheese a lot in our cuisine, specially in North India. Although I did not put parmesan cheese. But it was very tasty, I put lot of chilly flakes and capsicum instead of peas. It was melting in the mouth. Thanks for the wonderful recipe.
My Italian grandmother used cottage cheese in her amazing lasagna also hardboiled eggs slices with italian sausages cut in small slices and layerd them. It was the best.
Southern Italians have been doing this recipe with Ricotta Cheese, without the peas, for forever! It’s called Pasta Ricotta, and it pairs beautifully with whole wheat pasta and a nice salad! By the way, so much salt!
If you decide to try this dish just remember to spoon some ricotta cheese into a saucepan and heat very slowly by diluting with some milk… Do not bring this mixture to a boil because you curdle the ricotta cheese! Also, when you drain the pasta, put a little pasta water aside in case you have to moisten things a bit more. I prefer to garnish with Romano cheese, but either Romano or Parmesan is OK, according to your preference.
I was very skeptical until I made it, it's super delicious and easy to make, not to mention how much healthier it is. Thank you for this amazing recipe!
Pro tips: a teensy bit of sugar tones down the tartness if your batch is too strong. Add a lot basil or herb it tastes good and it makes it visually much more appealing. Black pepper chicken added for the win. Even better macros and pairs amazingly.
My dad made this similar while I was growing up but he caramelized diced onion in butter and added the cottage cheese as is to the cooked spaghetti with it.
I never thought to blend cottage cheese but that sounds amazing, I can think of a few things to use it in, it would probably be really good in tuna or chicken salad or as a substitute for cream cheese. I’m actually lactose intolerant and I found lactose free cottage cheese but not cream cheese, it could work.
Ooh, spaghetti squash is sooo tasty, especially tossed w/olive oil and Italian herbs, so the whipped cottage cheese idea w/shrimp would be extra fab! 😋😋😋
Just made this tonight! I may have ruined it because I'm on a chili oil kick and had to mix some with the pasta first, then added the cottage cheese sauce. Turned out amazing. Thanks very much for the idea! Jesus loves you! 😊
As a self-certified cottage cheese lover, I immediately rushed to the kitchen after watching this video 😂 I went a bit overboard with the garlic (today was the day I found out that there is, indeed, such a thing as too much garlic), but it was delicious nonetheless! I also added some shredded chicken for extra protein, and it filled me up so much that my stomach didn't growl once until dinner-time! Thanks for this ^^
I liked it, and I subscribed. ❤ Thank you for the great recipe! I will use chickpea pasta and a lot less salt, which I adore, but Dr's orders. I'm on a very limited salt way of eating. Salt hardens the arteries of the heart and neck. Darn it. I'm so looking forward to making this! Thank you!
No, salt is good. We've been lied to, so go low carb and blood pressure will go down by half. You will have to add a lot of salt once you go low carb/keto, especially if you fast. The carbs turn into plaque. Also calcium supplements harden in the arteries. I've been keto for 10 years. Reversed diabetes. Your doctor knows nothing of this because if they don't follow the pharmaceutical industry's protocols, they can lose their license. Start doing your own homework. Read medical journal's and pubmed studies. Good luck.
Thank you for sharing - just ran across this. My granddaughter is gluten free so I was wondering what pasta you used? Trying to find a better tasting GF pasta for her!
Its not fair that I am watching this video while not having cottage cheese in my house lol!! Looks absolutely amazing and I am sure the frozen peas give it a great touch. Will definitely report back on when I try it next week :)
Wonderful! I too am from midwest (dairy country) and much prefer cottage cheese over ricotta (always sub in lasagna) and had not considered it for alfredo but certainly will now!
Looked so delicious, that I just made this for dinner! Did anyone else have an issue with the sauce seizing up? I used regular (4%) cottage cheese, blended smooth, for the sauce. It sort of “curdled”, and never became creamy. Perhaps the pasta was too hot?? I added it just as soon as it was drained; as in the video.
It's really very delicious very tasty very energetic thanks alot for sharing this wonderful recipe Weldone 👍 You are a God's given very special very talented very sweet stunningly beautiful brilliant lady and your all recipes are amazing and unique just like you I'm wishing you alot of success and smiles in all the walks of your life Stay blessed Stay blessed ❤
I saved this and will be attempting this recipe here soon with my wife. I will not be telling her it’s made with cottage cheese till after. Awesome video, and thank you!
If you roasted the garlic in step 1, before processing it, would it end up being too overpowering? I'll probably try this next time i make pasta. Granted, doing that would make it wayxless "fas and easy."
I think roasted garlic in this would be delicious. I suggest adding just a clove or two, processing them into the sauce, then giving it a taste. If you think it needs more, trust your palate and go for it! I hope you enjoy!
This was so delicious 😋 and I loved it bc it didn't spike my blood sugar like normal spaghetti and sauce does so now I don't have to give up my 💕 for pasta thank you girl! 😊
@@Solitaire401 I'm not the author of the vlog, but I have had paneer many times. It is simply a mild, creamy-textured cheese found in Indian cuisine. I'm not exactly sure which specific region of India in terms of origin, but it's sooo tasty! 😋 If you have a Middle Eastern or Indian market near you (w/in 25-50 miles, at furthest distance), go grab some, find an easy recipe like this one and give it a try.
So cool! I just chanced upon this and have subscribed. Will try using this as a sauce base for white fish too ... would that work? Can you heat it in a saucepan?
Hi, hope you can help..I've tried using cottage cheese (4% small curd) in other pasta recipes, it tends to gets stringy & chewy and not very appetizing--I'd like to try your recipe but dont want to waste any more food (!) Any advice on what I may be doing wrong?? Thanks so much
Hi there! Since this sauce is pureed and isn't cooked (it is warmed simply by the heat of the cooked pasta), the cottage cheese stays creamy, not stringy at all. I do recommend using a regular curd (not small curd, which sometimes has less liquid). I hope this helps, and please keep me posted!
@@FromScratchFast Hi, its now evening of enjoying your AMAZING alfredo and you are right, it did stay creamy & smooth. I only had small curd which was why I was looking to make a recipe, so even that worked out well. Only used about 1/4 cup pasta water. However, do not do as I did...4 fat cloves of garlic in 10oz of cottage cheese turned out to be a bit much and I love garlic. Overall, this is a great recipe and highly recommended!!
@@rachs57 I'm so glad it worked out, and that's great to hear about the small curd cottage cheese! (And at least there will be NO vampires in your house today 😂)
oooh yummy! I'm going to try this with some yummy roasted veggies mixed in! and being pregnant, obviously making sure the cottage cheese is pasteurised.

Add chives, 1/2 tsp. Dash of nutmeg too. Fabulous!
Love it!
I can't wait to try this with my Lactaid cottage cheese. I'm lactose intolerant so my favorite Alfredo usually is usually off limits. So excited. !!!!
I hope you enjoy! I haven't tested the recipe with that brand of cottage cheese, so let me know how it turns out!

My Italian grandmother used cottage cheese in her amazing lasagna also hardboiled eggs slices with italian sausages cut in small slices and layerd them. It was the best.
Oh wow, that sounds so good!
My mom made lasagna with cottage cheese instead of ricotta because of cost in the 70/80s❤
Sohohohoo good!
Southern Italians have been doing this recipe with Ricotta Cheese, without the peas, for forever! It’s called Pasta Ricotta, and it pairs beautifully with whole wheat pasta and a nice salad! By the way, so much salt!
My thought about the salt too! Thanks for info about ricotta, definitely going to try that out! 👌
Lovely! 😊
The peas amp up the protein count.
Salt is amazing!

This sounds delicious! I'm going to make this using Keto Cottage Cheese and Miracle Noodles!
My dad made this similar while I was growing up but he caramelized diced onion in butter and added the cottage cheese as is to the cooked spaghetti with it.
That sounds so good! I love that this recipe can be adapted in so many ways. Going to try the caramelized onions!

Thank you!
Thanks so much!!
I made this tonight. The kids love cottage cheese and noodles so this was a perfect dinner for them. Thanks!
I'm so happy to hear!! Thank you for sharing 🥰
This is the perfect dinner for some adults too!
I love your recipe - easy is best! TFS!
I’m so happy to hear!!
Gonna try this sauce with shrimp, peas and spaghetti squash instead of pasta!!

Wow I can’t wait to try this. I love alfredo and this is a very good alternative that’s healthy and high in protein
Thank you, Rusty, and I hope you enjoy!
Just made this with spaghetti squash and spinach with the cottage cheese and some bean sprouts! Omg yum yum
Great idea to use spaghetti squash!
❤ I am a huge cottage cheese fan, I love it. I am going to try your recipe, it looks soooo delicious
Thank you so much, and I hope you enjoy!
Yum! 😋 I love cottage cheese I'm like you & grew eating it.
Can't wait to make it. Thanks 😊
I hope you enjoy!!
I tried this recipe again but with regular cottage cheese. IT WAS AMAZING!!!!!!
Hooray! I’m so happy to hear. 😊
Fantastic! To add protein you could throw some chicken or salmon in or use organic Pulse Pasta.
Wow, that looks delicious and I loved the presentation of the video. Thank you so much, Im going to try it.
Thank you, and I really hope you enjoy!

@@elvamargotmelgarejo2728 woohoo! So happy to hear.
Yummy recipe. Avocado is a nice addition here too. If your avocado is soft enough it can actually blend right into this sauce.
I love that tip!
Bought some cottage cheese today on a whim and then started looking for some savory recipe ideas. This looks super yummy, may try it tonight. Thanks 👍
I hope you enjoy, Richard!
Cottage cheese is also good in scrambled eggs.
So easy !! I am making this tonight !

I’m so glad you and your family enjoyed!!!
Yum....new to your channel and I'm going to make this! Thank you.
Welcome! Thanks for being here, and I hope you enjoy the pasta. 😊
WOW!! Making this today-thanks so much😍
Hooray! I hope you enjoy 😊
Looked so delicious, that I just made this for dinner!
Did anyone else have an issue with the sauce seizing up?
I used regular (4%) cottage cheese, blended smooth, for the sauce. It sort of “curdled”, and never became creamy.
Perhaps the pasta was too hot?? I added it just as soon as it was drained; as in the video.
I will be trying this for lunch 😀
I hope you enjoy!
Thank You for this recipe!! I love alfredo but it doesn’t love me back. 😞 I’m going to try this in the next week!!! 👍🏻
Hi Amy, I hope you enjoy the pasta!!
This was DELICIOUS!!! I added avocado and chives into the blender with the cottage cheese and garlic and MMMM delicious!!!
So glad you enjoyed, and love the avocado addition!!
Avocado sounds interesting, and speaking of green stuff, there's always basil pesto, which is a fave thing of mine. 😁
I am going to try this.
Love your kitchen and the recipe
Thank you so much!
Oooh gonna try this with broccoli as my dd doesn't like peas...looks delicious!

Great idea. working on it as i type.
That takes skill. 😂I hope you enjoy!
how would i be able to incorporate chicken or a meat source into this?
I often toss shredded rotisserie chicken into the pasta when I add the sauce (or you can sauté diced chicken then add it). I hope you enjoy!
definitely going to try this
Woohoo! I hope you enjoy!
Can we use paneer instead of cottage cheese?
I do think a creamy style paneer would work, although I haven’t tested it. Keep me posted!

Agreed!!
Thank you. I couldn't find sour cream so I looked at the cottage cheese and wondered.
Yummmm
😊
What quantity of cottage cheese do you use ??
Hi there! You'll need 2 cups of cottage cheese. You can get the full recipe here: fromscratchfast.com/cottage-cheese-alfredo-pasta-recipe/
It's delicious, although I was skeptical at first because I'm not used to cottage cheese. 😍

Awesome! I hope you enjoy!
oooh yummy! I'm going to try this with some yummy roasted veggies mixed in! and being pregnant, obviously making sure the cottage cheese is pasteurised.
I love the idea of adding roasted veggies. 😋 I hope you enjoy; keep me posted!
N basil or the green carrots leaves n some garlics mmmmm
Ooooiweeeee I'm doing this with my cottage cheese. Thank u. Will report back
I hope you enjoy, and keep me posted!
You didn’t report back?
Looks great !! I love pasta, but it kicks my diabetes into high gear. Would love to see some more cottage cheese recipes. Great video !!👍👍👍
Thank you so much!!
Maybe use rice noodles from Chinese Market
Maybe try Palmini noodles, they are made from hearts of palm.
Maybe zoodles are an option
I make it with zoodles - spiralised zucchini or courgette noodles. Just add them into the sauce to warm through. No need to cook it first.
Italians are gouging their eyes out
Gotta throw Parmesan into that sauce
Large curd gives a better mouthfeel!
Don’t think you need added salt. Cottage cheese and Parmesan r both loaded with salt. Not for low sodium diets.
You apparently need less salt, not everyone else. Go low carb, your high blood pressure will go down by half or more.
Mmmm...
