Nutritional values

Cheese and cottage cheese contain particularly high levels of bone-strengthening calcium: a good supply of this is considered the best preventive measure against osteoporosis (bone loss). The protein, which is easily utilized by the body, and many vitamins make the salad a satisfying vitamin dish.

Vegetarians can substitute fried tofu cubes or more walnuts for the ham cubes.
