  • 1 large English cucumber, diced
  • 1 cup full-fat cottage cheese

  • 1 tbsp finely diced red onion
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • Black pepper, to taste

Method
 

  1. Dice the cucumber into ½-inch pieces, place in a bowl, toss with ¼ tsp salt, and let sit 2 minutes.
  2. Add the cottage cheese, dill, red onion, lemon juice, and black pepper, then gently fold until coated. Serve right away.

Notes

You want to eat this salad minutes after making it. The cucumber will start to release water within 10 minutes, so hold off on assembling until you’re ready to serve. If it does sit, just give it a quick stir and drain off any liquid.
