Cool Cucumber Salad
This Salad is a refreshing complement to any meal, and it's attractive on the table. Whenever I'm asked to bring a dish to a potluck dinner, I prepare this salad. I often make it for friends and neighbors, too. It's always much appreciated. —Elisabeth Garrison, Elmer, New Jersey

I prefer this with cream cheese instead of cottage cheese....it's a texture thing

The flavors combine very well and make this a tasty and interesting salad, but it was way too salty. I'm not sure what the salt is doing there. I will make this again, but I will use half the salt, or eliminate it altogether.
I found this recipe while reading the 9th edition of "A Taste of the Country" page 105. We love cucumbers, and since the day was setting up to be a hot one, this looked like a great alternative to the worn out salad. While ingredients may be an unusual combination, they really come together well. Low fat mayo and cottage cheese, along with sugar free gelatin helped trim a few calories. And I didn't bother peeling the cucumber since it was being shredded anyway. Everybody thought it was terrific. What a great way to enjoy cucumbers!
