SUMMERTIME CUCUMBER AND COTTAGE CHEESE SALAD
My grandmother used to make this healthy summertime salad to help use up extra cukes from the garden. My husband works outside and loves coming home to this during the heat of the summer. The cottage cheese and mayo can be subbed with low fat for a healthier version.
