This was my mother's recipe that she cut from a magazine back in the sixties. It always made any meal special. I enjoy freshly ground black pepper on this salad. Veggie amounts can vary according to availability and personal tastes. Prep time varies. I guess-timated figuring my slow chopping time. Cooking time is chilling time. Ingredients:
1 lb cottage cheese |
1 lb sour cream |
1/2-1 teaspoon salt |
1 cup cucumber, sliced |
2 cups lettuce, torn in pieces |
3 green onions, chopped |
1/2 cup radish, sliced |
1/2 cup green pepper, sliced |
1/2 cup celery, chopped |
2 hardboiled egg, chopped |
1 -2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved |
1/4 cup carrot, shredded, approx. 1 carrot (optional) |
Directions:
1. Assemble dressing in a bowl by mixing cottage cheese, sour cream and salt.
2. Wash the cucumber well and slice it (peeling is optional).
3. Salt the cucumber slices and place in a small bowl.
4. Chill the dressing and cucumbers for 1 hour in the refrigerator.
5. After chopping and slicing the veggies, drain any liquid from the cucumbers.
6. Toss all veggies with the dressing, mixing well.
