Cheap and Simple Recipe Time Again
This thread of posts is quickly becoming my favorite, I never thought of cooking as a way to save until I started here on Today.com. I just planned my meals according to my budget and didn’t realize I had started budgeting the meals themselves. Lets go vegetarian today since I have been preparing more of them for my now non-meat eating husband.
Dairy Salad
- Head of Iceburg Lettuce
- Large Red Onion
- Medium Cucumber
- several small green peppers(or an assortment of colored)
- Bag shredded carrots (or shred your own)
- 10 radishes shredded
- 8 oz. Large Curd Cottage Cheese
- 4 oz. Four Cheese Blend Shredded Cheese
- Red Wine Vinegarette Salad Dressing
- Chopped walnuts
Prepare the veggies as you would for a typical tossed salad and refrigerate until ready to serve. Keep several large leaves of lettuce intact and set aside. Lay the lettuce leaf in the bottom of your salad bowl and scoop in a generous amount of cottage cheese. Add the salad mix around the sides of the bowl covering the cottage cheese slightly. Top it all of with the chopped walnuts, shredded cheese and drizzle the red wine vinergarette over it all. This is a tastey little salad, on that you have my word.
