SUMMERTIME COTTAGE CHEESE SALAD



Summertime Cottage Cheese Salad image

Fresh cottage cheese salad. Utilize the veggies from your garden. I'm not sure when I started making this salad. My grandma came up with it years ago, and I've made some simple changes to make it my own. **I've never had this salad on a bun, but my fellow Zaarites have taken gorgeous pictures in that form. I think I'll try it on a toasted onion bagel!
