I created this recipe as my husband was receiving radiation treatments for cancer. He was suppose to get as much extra protein as possible, but because the radiation caused his swallowing to become very difficult we were limited to soups, shakes, and other soft foods. He hated cottage cheese but I found this way to use it and he said it was his favorite salad food.

1	4 serving sz pkg	Jello, any flavor (sugar-free or regular)
1	cup	Hot water
4		Ice cubes
1	cup	Cottage Cheese (lowfat or regular)

• Dissolve jello in hot water and add ice cubes.
• Put cottage cheese in blender to remove all lumps.
• After the ice cubes have dissolved, add the cottage cheese and Cool Whip and blend with a wire whisk.
• Pour into individual cups or a 8 or 9 inch square pan.
