Here's a healthy, tasty & low-fat variation on a cucumber salad that provides the creamy texture w/o the use of mayo or sour cream. It uses cottage cheese to do that & my DH has come to like it nearly as well as the mayo or sour cream varieties. This works well as the salad part of a dinner meal, a light lunch & even travels well for a picnic or camping trip. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Prepare & combine all veggie ingredients. Add sugar & then seasoning salt & black pepper to taste.
- Refrigerate 2 hrs to allow flavours to blend & pour off any watery liquid that has formed before final step.
- Fold in cottage cheese gently, mix just enough to get a good distributional mix & serve immediately.
- NOTE: Altho not part of the "basic" recipe, I often add diced avocado for its colour & complimentary flavour.
