EASY ELEGANT COTTAGE CHEESE AND PINEAPPLE SALAD



Easy Elegant Cottage Cheese and Pineapple Salad image

Individual servings of a very colorful starter or attractive salad on the side which can be made ahead of time. Super easy for a beginner cook and good for you too! Before you think, eeks, mayonnaise, give it a try, it works really well. Of course you could omit the mayonnaise if you prefer. When we were kids my mom used to make this for us for lunch or for salad at dinner and we all loved it! :)
