1 cup boiling water
1 cup ice water
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can pears with juice, drained

  • Place in refridgerator till semi-jelled.
  • Add pears and cottage cheese, stirring to combine.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, firm pears: Pears that are too soft will not hold their shape in the salad, while pears that are too hard will be difficult to eat.
  • Use a variety of colors of pears: This will add visual interest to the salad.
  • Do not overmix the salad: Overmixing will cause the pears to break down and the salad will become mushy.
  • Chill the salad before serving: This will help the flavors to meld and the salad will be more refreshing.
  • Garnish the salad with fresh mint or parsley: This will add a pop of color and freshness.
