ITALIAN FLAG COTTAGE CHEESE SALAD
1 (16 ounce) container small-curd cottage cheese
1 medium red bell pepper, diced
6 medium green onions (white part and most of the green part), sliced
4 tablespoons buttermilk
Salt and coarsely ground black pepper to taste
6 large basil leaves
In a strainer set over a bowl, drain cottage cheese about 10 minutes; discard liquid.
In a large bowl, combine cottage cheese, bell pepper and onions. Gently stir in buttermilk, a pinch of salt and several generous grindings of pepper. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
Just before serving, chiffonade the basil: Roll leaves up together into tight cigars, and slice thinly crosswise with a sharp knife. Scatter basil chiffonade over the salad.
Makes 4 servings
