Uses for Quark

Add very low fat fromage frais to quark with some herbs & garlic to make a lovely dip.

---

Add garlic puree (you don’t need very much) to a tub of quark, mix together and keep in the fridge to add to almost anything! Try dipping slimming world chips into it or use as a topping for jacket potatoes.

---

Mix with a tin of tuna, chopped spring onion, red pepper and a tsp of paprika for a sandwich filling or jacket potato topping.

---

Mix salmon with a tub of quark place on a bed of rocket leaves and top with asparagus and black pepper. (Lovely as a starter)

---

Mix quark with cooked leeks, mushrooms, fat free fromage frais or yoghurt and stir through pasta. It makes a really nice creamy sauce.

---

Quark is a good alternative to cottage cheese when making quiche, just whisk it into the eggs and pour over the base mixture.

---

Make a sugar free jelly up as the packet says and set aside to cool (2 sins). Mix a matching flavoured Muller light with a pot of quark. Carefully stir in jelly and allow to set in the fridge over night.

---

Mix equal parts quark and Mullerlight (any flavour). Add a little sweetener and put into ice cream maker - delicious!

---

Add sweetener, mix well and use as a free topping on fruit.
