Farmer's Salad

This recipe was given to me by my friend Sharon. It's light, simple to make, and tastes wonderful - it's perfect for the summer!! I love the combination of soft cottage cheese, crunchy vegetables, and dill. I also really like that there is no dressing on this salad...it just doesn't need it. This dish is very versatile - you can use whatever veggies you have on hand. My kids thought it was good and they aren't cottage cheese fans. My husband and I both really loved it. I had the leftovers for lunch the following day and it tasted fantastic. Thanks for the terrific recipe Sharon!
