COTTAGE CHEESE WALDORF SALAD RECIPE

It’s back to school time, when children come home absolutely famished and they start raiding the pantry. Or when parents get to be taxi drivers, rushing from the pick up line to extracurricular activities. I’m all about easy and convenient recipes (that are still healthy) this time of year! My kids have been loving this waldorf salad recipe made with Shamrock Farms cottage cheese! I prep a big batch on Sunday night and they enjoy it for breakfast or for a protein packed after school snack before we rush off to dance and swim practice. It’s gluten free and primal friendly for those of our Whole30 or Paleo friends who also enjoy dairy like we do.

COTTAGE CHEESE WALDORF SALAD INGREDIENTS

The ingredients for this cottage cheese waldorf salad are easily found in the grocery store and I bet you already have many of them in your pantry.

• 16 ounces Shamrock Farms cottage cheese
• 1 cup red grapes (halved)
• 1/2 cup golden raisins
• 1 cup walnuts (chopped)
• 2 large granny smith apples (chopped)
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice

The key ingredient for this recipe is Shamrock Farms cottage cheese. It’s my favorite dairy brand and once you try it, you won’t buy anything else. Make sure to be on the lookout for the NEW green lid in your local dairy case. Their cottage cheese is made using a hands-on approach that has been refined for three generations and the difference is noticeable. Packed with 13 grams of protein and 110 mg of calcium per serving to help with energy and focus, Shamrock Farms cottage cheese makes for a great after school snack!
