Here are some low-saturated-fat cheeses to consider.

Fat-free Swiss cheese

Swiss cheese is fat-free and lower in calories than full-fat cheese, making it a good choice for people who need to limit saturated fat.

Cottage cheese with 2% fat

Cottage cheese is great in fruit salads, pasta dishes, and as a topping for baked potatoes. For cheese lovers who want to limit saturated fat, cottage cheese is a great choice.

Low fat Ricotta cheese

Ricotta cheese has a smaller curd than cottage cheese and tastes just as good as cottage cheese, but has significantly less saturated fat, making it a great choice for dieters who want to limit their saturated fat intake.

Low fat mozzarella

Because it's made with partially skimmed milk, low-fat mozzarella has much less saturated fat than full-fat mozzarella but still tastes great. Low-fat mozzarella tends to melt well, so it can be used in pizza or cheese scrambles.

Neuchatel cheese

Neufchatel cheese is a soft and spreadable cheese that makes a great substitute for high-fat cream cheese. Neufchatel cheese is used in many recipes such as cheesecakes or cheese balls.
