This quick and easy cottage cheese salad recipe is a tasty and colorful way to take a break from regular veggie salads and sweet salads. Even though it has a pretty Christmas look to it it is great all year long.
This Cottage Cheese Salad Recipe is from Volume 1 of our cookbook:

I made this salad last night. Very good. It was so hot when I came home from work, so I had a bologna sandwich with cheese and this salad and chips with that sour cream and barbeque sauce dip and Iced Tea from your cookbook. Very nice! Ahh.
I make this salad but I add 1/4 cup chopped onions and 1/4 cup diced green peppers along with a dash of garlic powder. Have been making it since I was 12. It is a great salad and my kids love it and make it for their kids.
I love mixing unsweetened applesauce and a little dash of cinnamon sugar to cottage cheese. Not really a salad but so good. It is not really pretty and I will not say what my kids used to say it looks like but everyone loves it.
what a great cottage cheese recipe… my wife does NOT like onions, so guess I could put what she does like… chunks of pineapple and or slices of almonds… this opens up the avenue to make a number of variations… I LIKE hot sauce… Nope, she won’t touch it if I do that… GREAT!
Ooo… brilliant! I’ll have to try this one. A nice change from the usual way we eat cottage cheese – chopped pears with lots of black pepper!
That is so funny CJ. My mom had cottage cheese and pears the other night and dad dumped a ton of pepper on it and I made a face and teased him about it. I said I could not believe he put pepper on cottage cheese and pears. I thought no one else did that at all. I will now have to eat my words. 🙂
This is one of my favorite salads to make. I love it. Thanks
We love this salad and make it all the time. It is also good on a baked potato.♥️
Ohhh Pam never thought about putting it on a baked potato but I bet that would really be good.
my mother used to dice beets from the can. mix with a bit of mayo and or sour cream (not much) mix a bit at a time to consistency and taste you prefer.serve chilled. used to place bowl if ice and then the bowl with beets on top to serve outside. another relative would ad a bit of mild onion sliced thin or chopped and some pepper.
