My Sister's Salad

My sister makes a salad that is so good that I called her for the recipe this week because I had to bring a salad to a birthday luncheon.  So I am sharing.  (I ate a very similar salad at another luncheon the same week, and they'd added roasted slivered almonds rather than cottage cheese to theirs, which was yummy, too.)

Don't toss the ingredients until right before you are eating.  It gets soggy fast.

My Sister's Salad

* 1/2 head lettuce
* equal amount of spinach
* 1/2 pkg. bacon (fried and turned into bacon bits)
* 1 cup swiss cheese
* 1 cup cottage cheese
* 3/4 cup white vinegar
* 1/2 c. olive or other oil
* 3/4 c. sugar (you might try honey instead)
* 1/2 t. salt
* 2 t. poppyseeds
* 1/4 c. red onion, chopped
* more red onion, in circles, to decorate the top
