recipe reviews for:

Cottage Cheese, Avocado, and Black Bean Salsa

“An accidental masterpiece made from leftovers that is now an all-around favorite. Black beans, canned or frozen corn, avocado, and cottage cheese are just a few ingredients that, while not the prettiest bowl of food in the world, certainly make for one of the tastiest snacks around. Great to keep in the refrigerator for a delicious anytime snack.”

Quick and awesome. I added some hot sauce because my salsa was just "mild". Very healthy alternatives to putting mayo. Next time I will two two avocados just because my family is a huge avocado fan.

I just had this for lunch, used low-fat cottage cheese, my homemade salsa, black beans and an avocado. Left out the corn and extra tomatoes. Was a great healthy lunch because I used a spoon...no chips. Thanks Dave.

Yum! I cut the amounts back based on what I had available, left out the beans, used homemade salsa and a little salt and pepper to taste. I had some mexi-corn leftover and that worked great in place of the cob of corn. I think this recipe has a lot of wiggle room and it's very tasty!

This was surprisingly good. I will admit, it does not look all that appetizing, but it was definitely delish! I added a few things: * lime juice * olive oil & vinegar dressing (splash) * Freshly thinly sliced serrano peppers I like it with a bit of a bite. Served with tortilla chips. In the future, I may add to the recipe some refried beans to make it more of a thicker dip.

Perfect! Just what I was looking for. I omitted the corn and added a little garlic powder and sea salt and threw it all together without cooking anything. Just ate it out of a bowl without chips. Yum!

While this is DELICIOUS I am a bit confused by the description which states it can be stored in the fridge for several days? I can't imagine anything with avocado not being disgusting after the 2nd day.

My co-workers and I really enjoyed this recipe. I am giving it only 4 stars because of it's apperance. I had to talk people into trying it because it was so unappealing to the eye. I would definitely suggest added some lime juice to keep the avocado green. I will be making again and trying to find ways to make it more visually appetizing. I can't imagine it would have been touched at a party if I weren't standing beside it suggesting it to people.

Absolutely fantastic!!! This is going to be a mainstay around our house from now on. It's great with chips or wrapped in a whole wheat tortilla (like a burrito) as another reviewer mentioned. So, so, so good!
