DRY JELL-O SALAD (JELLO) COTTAGE CHEESE FRUIT SALAD
I could eat the whole bowl by myself! This is a great recipe for those who don't like Jell-O since you use it dry and it gives a totally different texture than traditional Jell-O salads. Hint: if you use orange flavored Jell-O use mandarin oranges instead of pineapple.

LIME COTTAGE SALAD
This is a refreshing summer salad that goes with just about anything. This does not have as many ingredients as some do, but it is sooo good, and very easy to make as I usually have all three of the ingredients on hand most of the time. It is a pretty green and I just love it. We all do. I make it all year long. If you make it with the sugar-free jello and low-fat cottage cheese, it is a great Weight Watcher dish. I have used both kinds, and they both taste the same. It has only 1-2 points per serving.

COTTAGE CHEESE JELLO SALAD
Wow, talk about an easy salad to make this is it! Now, my Grammie didn't have a name on this recipe so I just gave it a name. I remember eating this jello when I was a kid. I love that it has cottage cheese in it and it is light, creamy and just the right amount of sweet. It would be great to be served at Easter time or any...

COTTAGE CHEESE JELLO FRUIT SALAD
TIP: If you like it more fruity, use less cool whip. If you like it more creamy, use more cool whip. Also, you can "holiday" it up or customize it just by changing flavors. For Christmas, use green jello and add cherries. For Halloween, use orange jello and add mandarin oranges, etc.

THREADGILL'S COTTAGE CHEESE CUCUMBER SALAD
This refreshing salad from Threadgill's brings back fond memories of iced tea, live music, fried catfish, and other delights from the Austin, TX restaurant. The dish can be served as a side salad, or, for a low-calorie lunch, serve on a bed of lettuce with some tomato wedges sprinkled with salt & pepper. I clipped the recipe from the Austin American Statesman many years ago. The original called for fresh parsley, but I like it with the dill.
