This one has tons of flavor and it’s an easy way to create a healthy, flavor-packed dressing! This spicy salad is made with creamy avocado, salty cotija cheese, spicy jalapeños, and crunchy pepitas, then drizzled with a chipotle-infused dressing! You’re going to fall in love with this one. For the salad 8 cups chopped romaine lettuce 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, chopped 2 tablespoons pumpkin seeds 3 tablespoons cotija cheese 1 jalapeño, thinly sliced 1 avocado, chopped . For the dressing 1/2 cup cottage cheese (I used 4% milkfat) or plain full fat Greek yogurt 2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce plus 1 tablespoon of the adobo sauce 2 tablespoons mayonnaise 2 tablespoons olive oil 1 tablespoon lime juice 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard 2 teaspoons honey or maple syrup 1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste, depending on the saltiness of the cottage cheese) . Instructions In a blender or food processor, blend the dressing until smooth. This will make about 3/4 cup of dressing, so you’ll have extra salad dressing left over. Combine the lettuce, tomatoes, pumpkin seeds, cheese, jalapeño, and avocado in a large bowl. Drizzle with your desired amount of dressing and toss to combine. . #cottagecheese #cottagecheeserecipes #veggies #eatyourveggies #vegetarianmealprep ## Stats - **Views:** 1,158 - **Likes:** 212 - **Shares:** 0 - **Comments:** 43 ## Tags veggies, cottagecheeserecipes, vegetarianmealprep, eatyourveggies, cottagecheese --- Copyright (c) Gondola
