Great job!! I'm a Food Network junkie, too!

I make labneh (yogurt cheese) frequently and enjoy it with all sorts of stuff. Sometimes I mix in veggies (grated carrot, radish, cucumber, scallion, plus a little salt and pepper) for a cracker spread at a party. Other times I add fresh fruit and spread it on toast.

I'm not sure about the nutrition angle. I usually estimate it based on the yogurt carton and figure most of the eliminated weight is water, so what remains will have the same nutritional value, except compressed.

I confess I've never saved the drained whey. It tastes really nasty by itself!

Tell us all about the cottage cheese, too! What's your milk source? Do you have your own cows?
