Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 c raw spinach -- finely chopped
1 thinly sliced peeled cucumber
4 green onions -- chopped
1/2 c sliced radishes
2 c cottage cheese
1 c sour cream
2 tsp fresh or bottled lemon juice
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp freshly ground pepper
Paprika -- to taste
1/2 c minced fresh parsley
I like to wash the spinach the day before, then wrap it in a cloth and
refrigerate it overnight.
Chop the spinach, add the cucumber, onions and radishes, then toss lightly.
Arrange in a wooden salad bowl and place a mound of cottage cheese in the
middle. Blend the sour cream with the lemon juice, salt and pepper and pour
over the salad.
Sprinkle the paprika in the middle and the parsly all around. Toss when
ready to serve.

NOTES : This is a very good meal in itself, but it's even better when
served with thin slices of lightly buttered black bread.
