I have figured out a way to eat homemade farmer's cheese everyday for lunch:
Saute a tiny amount of veggies in CO (I'm going to try chopped tomatoes next), add lots of farmer's cheese, season it (I like organic powdered coriander, garam masala, turmeric, salt), slip it into a pita pocket, top with homemade tzatziki sauce, top that with a bit of shredded cheddar. Pack in foil for work lunch. Delicious! Endless variations with what veggies to add.
So. The only problem I have is I'm using 2% milk to make FC. I'm trying to keep fat very low to let me body burn more fructose. Has anyone made FC with skim milk? Do you get LESS cheese because milk is skim? Does it taste better or not?
The pita pocket sandwich is an amazingly versatile thing. I have put ground beef in it too, and my daughter loved it. (I'm not eating ground beef any more regularly).
Next I want to figure out how to put in some shrimp.
I know it's not perfect because of the gluten in pita, but I've never had issues with gluten, and need to eat more solid food to meet calorie requirements. I try not to eat too much gluten anyhow.
