My favorite food: Farmers Cheese


Farmer's Cheese...many Americans don't know what it is, they simply walk past it at the grocery store not even glancing at it. Me however, I run to the dairy section of every store! It has always been in the fridge at my house; my mom mixes it with sour cream or Greek yogurt, scallions and diced radishes-- it becomes the consistency of ricotta cheese, whereas before it was a block like feta cheese. 

This is MY FAVORITE FOOD! I would eat it for breakfast, lunch and dinner, on a sandwich or by the spoonfuls! :)

Ingredients:
1 block of Farmers cheese--comes in a package usually says in Polish "Twarog" 
5 spoonfuls of Greek yogurt or sour cream--you can add more or less depending on how creamy you want it to be
3 diced radishes
3 diced green onions
salt and pepper to taste

Assembly:

1.) In a large bowl, break up or mash the farmers cheese. Add scallions, radishes and Greek yogurt. Add salt and pepper. Taste. If you feel like it needs more salt or pepper, add more. 

** This recipe, and most Polish recipes, are ones that require your judgement on how it looks or tastes. Therefore if you feel like the cheese tastes a little bland, go ahead and add more scallions and salt! You can play around a lot with this recipe to make it exactly how you like it. 

Tastes amazing on: Sandwiches with sliced tomatoes and cucumbers! :) Best breakfast or lunch ever known to exist to man--yet so extremely simple!



ENJOY :)
