Pineapple Salad Recipe
Grammy used to make us this pineapple salad. It is one of the foods I remember most from my visits with her. No recipe is really needed and I can't find it in her recipe box, but it is such a "Grammy" recipe that I had to include it.
Ingredients:
iceberg lettuce
cottage cheese
pineapple slices
maraschino cherries
Layer ingredients on individual plates (small plates):
Start with a layer of lettuce leaves to cover the bottom of the plate.
Then add cottage cheese--maybe 1/4 cup, or to taste.
Next add a slice of pineapple ,
and top with a maraschino cherry.

I always had mixed feelings about this salad; it was really yummy--but, as a kid, I never wanted to eat the lettuce. I did eat the lettuce and remember it was pretty good with the pineapple and cherry juice on it, but I still didn't want to eat it the next time around.

This was my favorite food of all time at Grammys!! Even better than the merfins......
Hi Teeny! Merfins are the best! She didn't have a recipe card for this, but I just HAD to add it.
Loved this too. She made it every time we visited. I made this for my kids once. They were not impressed. That was quite a while ago though - I may have to try again!
I made this for my kids too. Some of them loved it. They can't get enough cottage cheese. Of course some of them hated it, as usual.
