This salad I make often when we have company. I had to type it up as it is often requested by others…so I figured I might as well share it here as well.
Two-Cheese Tossed Salad
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup chopped red onion
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup vinegar
1 teaspoon poppy seeds
1/2 teaspoon dried minced onion
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon prepared mustard
1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon salt
5 cups torn fresh spinach
5 cups torn iceberg lettuce
1/2 pound fresh mushrooms, sliced
1 carton (8 ounces) cottage cheese
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded Swiss cheese
2 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled
In a jar with tight-fitting lid, combine the first eight ingredients. Refrigerate overnight. Just before serving, toss spinach, lettuce, mushrooms, and cheeses in a large salad bowl. Shake dressing and pour over salad. Sprinkle with bacon. Yield: 12-14 servings.
