Equipment

High-powered blender
Rubber Spatula
Mixing bowl

Ingredients

1 cup Cottage cheese full fat or 2%
½ cup Plain Greek yogurt I used whole milk
2 tablespoon Olive oil
1 tablespoon Lemon juice
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon Honey optional
2-6 tablespoon Water, milk, or unsweetened milk alternative to thin I use 2 tablespoon for a dip and 4 tablespoon for a dressing
1 teaspoon Dried dill or 1 tablespoon fresh minced dill (for less dill flavor, you can reduce to ¾ teaspoon of dried dill)
½ teaspoon Dried chives or ½ tablespoon fresh minced chives
½ teaspoon Dried parsley or ½ tablespoon fresh minced parsley
½ teaspoon Garlic powder
½ teaspoon Onion powder
¼ teaspoon Black pepper
¼ teaspoon Sea salt

Instructions

Add cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, olive oil, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, and honey (if using) to a high-powered blender. Blend until the curds of the cottage cheese are completely smooth, scraping the sides of the blender with a rubber spatula as needed.
Blend in water, milk, or an unsweetened dairy-free milk alternative 1 tablespoon at a time until you achieve the desired consistency. I use 2 tablespoons of liquid for a dip, and 4 tablespoons for a dressing.
Transfer the cottage cheese mixture into a mixing bowl and add the remaining ingredients. Stir together until well incorporated. Taste and adjust seasonings if needed.
