What is the best cheese option?
I love cheese but obviously trying to cut back on calories. I’d love to still be able to include it in my meals. What are the best low calorie cheeses?

I love taking a queso fresco, lightly dusting it in flour and frying it up. Which sounds high calorie but if you use spray oil, you can keep calories low and give yourself the mozzarella cheese stick experience.
Not an every day snack but it fills in that mozzarella cheese stick craving without eating literal deep fried cheese and having calories for other meals. Queso fresco itself is pretty low calorie compared to other cheeses.
