Have you tried Velveeta Shreds? Walmart (Great Value brand) has reduced fat shredded cheese. I like Cabot brand if that's available in your local stores

Kraft fat free cheddar shredded, Sargento ultra thin slices, light laughing cow & Lucerne fat free mozzarella shredded. When I find the shredded cheese I buy a few packets and freeze them. you can use frozen shredded cheese straight from the packet and it still melts perfectly & defrosts quickly if you want to use it in a salad.

@lindner76 wow, never thought to freeze cheese
by (8.5k points)
@lachlan I used to live on an Island, so deliveries were infrequent. freezing was the only option. I learnt you can freeze any cheese, buy bulk blocks & cut up, creamy bourbin, brie, feta. I buy blue cheese and cut it into small pieces, freeze so I have a little for on my steak.

Not eating a lot, but when I do, it is regular good quality cheese from a reputable deli. No artificial or reduced anything except a bit of Truvia in morning black coffee. Thinking “long term”.

Here is how I use the laughing cow I have a breakfast that I truly love. I'm not that crazy about eggs but I love this breakfast. I keep it in my tracker as Everyday Breakfast YUM! In a small pan put a glug of olive oil. Throw in a fist full of chopped onions, a fistful of chopped bell pepper, Himalayan pink salt, McCormick's basil sprinkle, fresh ground pepper, sometimes trader Joe's umami mushroom sprinkle. Then I crack in 2 eggs and making sure all the eggs are covered. Then I put a lid on it for 1-2 minutes to let it set. Then I flip it over and on one side I put on a chopped up wedge of laughing cloud cheese. Then fold the other half over the cheese half. Laughing cow has a bunch of flavors so it can be a different omelet every day. If you only use teaspoon of oil the whole this is 2 points. But today we changed things up. Before we put the eggs in we whisked the eggs with avocado mash and then poured it over the vegetables. The rest of the process is the same cover, flip, cheese, and fold. The avocado mash adds 3 more points bring it to 5 points. It is very filling and very healthy for you. Sometimes you need a little more oil so a quick spritz with a sprayer does the trick. I meal prep 3 things and the rest I keep as staples. Meal prep A big bin of raw chopped bell peppers A big bin of raw chopped onions A big bin of cooked cubed chicken breast. STAPLES Eggs, laughing cow triangle cheese, shrimp, rao's marinara, beans, tuna, chicken stock, seasonal fruits and veggies, ff Greek yogurt, tzatziki sauce, Joseph's whole wheat, oatbran and flax pita, trader joe's lite Mexican cheese and lite mozzarella cheese, pasta and farro. For a quick lunch I make tzatziki chicken after it is prepped it literally takes 1 minute to prepare. Tzatziki chicken 1 fistful raw onion, 1 fistful raw pepper, 4 ounces of chicken. You can add tomato or cucumber if you have them on hand. Mix in 2 tablespoons of tzatziki sauce. You can eat it like this or put it on a pita but what I like to do is RIP up half a pita and mix it in after I've mixed in the tzatziki sauce so it doesnt get soggy. If I bring it to work I wait to do the mix in there because of the sogginess factor of mixing too early. For dinner you can take those same 3 ingredients and add them to pasta or farro or salad with any thing you like on the staples list.
