Quick cottage cheese salad

When I moved from the burbs to the city my food budget was $20 a week. I had to be creative in my meals to make sure I was getting nutrition. I added tomatoes and avacados to a ton of things. To this day if I make Kraft mac n cheese for the kids I will make myself a bowl and add avacado to it for old times sake.
But a favorite snack that stuck is very simple.
Ingredients:
  • Cottage Cheese (my fav is Trader Joes)
  • Avacado
  • Grape tomatoes
Scoop the cottage cheese into a bowl and top with avacado and tomatoes. The Cottage cheese is tart, the grape tomatoes are sweet and the avacado is creamy. It's easy and refreshing on a hot day when nothing sounds good. Enjoy!
