Reduced-Fat Cheese

Reduced-Fat Cheese is a cheese made to keep the familiar flavor and cooking qualities of regular cheese while trimming back some of the fat. It’s commonly used in sandwiches, toasties, pasta bakes, omelets, and as a grating or snacking cheese. It’s a protein-rich dairy food, with 24.9g protein per 100g, and it’s also a very good source of calcium, plus some vitamin B12 and zinc. Compared with many full-fat cheeses, it can be a lighter option while still adding plenty of savory richness. As with most cheese, it still contains a meaningful amount of saturated fat and salt, so it’s best enjoyed in sensible portions as part of a balanced diet.
