Cottage Refresh is an excellent choice for anyone looking for a healthy, tasty, and nutritious meal! The first time I made this salad, I used just carrots and cottage cheese, which seemed like a great combination for breakfast, especially when paired with a boiled egg. This time, however, I decided to add a few extra ingredients to make it even more nutritious while still keeping that fresh taste.
One of the key aspects of the Cottage Refresh salad is its versatility! You can easily customize it by adding other healthy ingredients, such as nuts, seeds, or different vegetables, depending on your preferences. It’s a salad that can be adapted to any diet or nutritional need. It’s perfect for those looking to maintain their weight or adopt a healthy lifestyle without sacrificing flavor.
Another important aspect is the lean, creamy protein content. Cottage cheese is an excellent source of protein with a low fat content, making it ideal for those on a diet or anyone looking to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Protein helps preserve muscle mass and increases feelings of satiety.
In conclusion, without keeping you in suspense any longer, let me show you just how simple it is to prepare this delicious salad!

Ingredients

  • 200 g Cottage cheese

  • 150 g Greek yogurt

  • 250 g carrots (weighed after cleaning)

  • 50 g fresh spinach

  • 100 g chicken/turkey ham (optional)

  • 1 tablespoon oil (optional)

  • 1 lemon (we only use the juice)

  • salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

Directions

  • As you can see, the ingredients needed are neither sophisticated nor hard to find; in fact, you probably have half of them on hand. You can also add green onions or dill to this combination, as they pair wonderfully together.ingredients Cottage Refresh Saladningredients Cottage refresh Salad
  • As you can see in the previous picture, I grated the carrots and chopped the chicken ham into small cubes. I also chopped the spinach, but coarsely, to preserve its texture as much as possible. In a large bowl, I added the cottage cheese, yogurt, oil, vegetables, and ham cubes. I mixed everything gently and seasoned to taste with lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
  • For serving, feel free to let your imagination run wild. Whether you’re in a formal setting or not, a nice bowl or a few glass cups will do the trick perfectly! A little tip: mix the salad just before serving to preserve and fully enjoy its freshness.
