A. I cant have cheese or milk or cottage cheese or cream cheese or any cheese / my doctors orders / how would you like that? Im not suppose to eat burgers from Burger King or McDonalds but once a month I sneak over to Burger King and get a whopper--no cheese. A whopper with 2 thin burgers on it is about 800 calories so I have to make it blend in to the rest of my diet or in other words I just dont eat lunch that day but do eat breakfast.

Bacon is a strong flavor but cheese is a milder flavor / I feel you could take out the cheese before you could take out the bacon. / You have to think about what flavor you like the best / this is how chefs create new recipes--they… [cont.]

Question about an asiago cheese substitute?
Q. This is probably a stupid question but I really don't cook anything new that often. Would it be completely gross if I used blue cheese as a substitute for asiago cheese in a meatloaf recipe?

A. It will not give the same flavor as the nutty taste of Asagio Cheese. If you can't find Asiago, substitute aged Parmesan Cheese.

Can I use sour cream as a substitute for cottage cheese?
Q. I am baking lasagna, the problem is we do not have ricotta cheese, and the substitute is cottage cheese, which i don't like.
Asked by sept baby - Thu Mar 6 03:53:03 2008 - - 5 Answers - 0 Comments
A. I have used Cottage Cheese before but to get it to hold together add an extra egg. Also, try to strain the whey(liquid) from it as best you can. This helps to keep it from being as runny. I have also mixed it with equal parts of ricotta. And other times have put it in the blender to get it to a more cremier texture. That works too but still drain the liquid. You can use a paper towel in the bottom of the sieve, and let it set for about an hour, dump it into a work bowl and scrape off the paper towel. Then add the mozzerella, parmesan, parsley, garlic, oregano, basil, eggs and mix it up. Delicious...

Healthier substitute rather than cheese for a grilled quesadilla?

The least costly substitute is Danish Blue. Go with that one. It's the best substitute and also the "best buy" out of all the substitutes mentioned. Stilton, Maytag, Roquefort are all very expensive.
