From the CA restaurant chain. Ingredients:
1 lb fresh baby spinach leaves |
2 -3 hard-boiled eggs, finely chopped (reserve) |
2 -3 tomatoes, finely diced |
4 slices bacon, cooked crisp and crumbled (reserve) |
1 1/8 cups cottage cheese, small curd |
3/4 cup salad oil |
1/4 cup cider vinegar |
3 tablespoons sugar |
1 tablespoon red onion, minced |
2 1/4 teaspoons poppy seeds |
3/4 teaspoon dried mustard |
3/4 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. Mix all salad ingredients well, reserving chopped egg & bacon. Refrigerate until serving time.
2. Just before serving, toss with dressing and top with crumbled bacon & chopped egg.
3. Note: If you can find cottage cheese with chives, it's better than plain. I also substitute chopped shallot for the red onion. Dressing quantity is ample. Add just enough to moisten salad and use remaining in another recipe.
