Right now i have one cup of cottage cheese and 1-2 tablespoons of natural PB before bed. Is it benefical at all to have some whey/milk on top of the cott cheese and nat PB??

So long as you are getting enough protein in the casein whey and milk than that is fine. If you are using Concentrate or Isolate, then I would switch the cottage cheese only and PB only.

There are different kinds of whey such as Isolate, Concentrate, Micellar, Casein etc.... If your protein is not Casein Whey (which it isn't if you are using ON 100%) then I would switch to cottage cheese.

What about 1 cup of cottage cheese, plus 2 tablespoons olive oil instead of peanutbutter?

Is olive oil a leaner fat, so to speak, than pb?

"leaner fat" What do you meal by that? Olive oil is mainly a mono-unsaturated fat and this is a very good fat... It is also 100% fat (so all the calories come from fat)... 1 tbs = 15g fat = 135 calories.

PB is a combination of mono-unsaturated fats, poly-unsaturated fats and some saturated fats. It also has some other things in it too - protein, a little carb, a little fiber.... So not all the calories are from fat (1 tbs = ~3.5g carbs, 3.5g protein, 8g fat, 1g fiber and ~95 cals).

If you want to replace the PB with olive oil then that is fine... But 2 tbs olive oil = 30g of fat So if you wanted the same amount of fat as 1 tbs PB then you only need 0.5 tbs of it!!
