Effie's Easy and Amazing Cottage Cheese Salad with Za'atar

Ingredients

• 4 small Persian cucumbers, cut in fourths lengthwise and then into slices
• 1 cup diced fresh tomatoes

• 1/2 cup sliced olives
• 1 cup cottage cheese
• About 2 T olive oil, a generous drizzle

2. Chop the tomatoes, cut the green onions into thin slices, and slice the olives.
3. Add the vegetables to a salad bowl with enough room for easy tossing, then mix them together.
4. Spoon the cottage cheese over the vegetables.
5. Pour on a generous drizzle of olive oil, add Za'atar to taste, and toss the salad once more.
6. Serve immediately, with extra Za'atar on the table for anyone who wants more.
