Looking for tasty cottage cheese recipes for a non cottage cheese lover

Cottage Cheese Salad recipe
(it's a favorite party dish)

1 sweet onion, diced
1 green bell pepper, diced
1T. Worcestershire
1 T. lemon juice
3 T. Mayo
1 t. fresh black pepper
1 t. salt
1 large container of small curd cottage cheese

Strain and rinse the cottage cheese. (I prefer it strained, but I've made it without straining it, and it works, too.) In a bowl, combine lemon juice, Worcestershire, salt & pepper and mayo. (I use Canola-based mayo for lower calorie count.) Fold in raw veggies and cottage cheese, and allow to marinate in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours...preferably overnight. Taste after marinating and adjust salt & pepper as needed.

**This is fantastic and fresh. In the summer, when good tomatoes are in season, I also add fresh tomatoes with the onion and bell pepper!
