Cottage Cheese seems to be a popular add in for recipes for a boost of protein. I am not a fan of it, but maybe if it is camouflaged with other ingredients?

What do you think of this salad recipe? Are you eating more cottage cheese?

Ingredients (For 2 Servings)

• ½ cucumber, chopped
• 2 small tomatoes, chopped
• ½ red onion, chopped
• 10 olives, pitted, minced
• ½ red bell pepper, chopped
• 1 cup chickpeas, drained
• ¾ cup cottage cheese
• ½ lemon, juice
• 2 Tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp oregano
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 2 Tbsp chopped parsley

Instructions

• Add all the vegetables to a large bowl, followed by the chickpeas and cottage cheese. Mix well.
• Drizzle lemon juice and olive oil on top.
• Season with oregano, salt, and pepper, and toss everything together.
• Sprinkle with parsley and serve immediately.

Yes I do eat a lot of cottage cheese. I workout a lot and need protein but am not really hungry after a hard workout but know I need protein. I can eat a half cup and enjoy it. The salad looks good.

mmm I would eat that. I do like cottage cheese. You could sub feta cheese in there for a Greek salad vibe. This would be great for a summer pot luck

I don't drink milk or do much Derry, but I do eat cottage cheese.  Love it with pineapple or other fruit.

The recipe posted doesn't look like something I would like, though.  I would substitute feta cheese for the cottage cheese.
