Cottage Cheese Taco Dip – The key ingredient. 

I feel like cottage cheese always gets a bad rap. From a quick glance, I get it; it’s white, kind of lumpy, and doesn’t have a ton of flavour. However, when used properly, you can have an ultra-creamy dip that has the ability to take on so many flavours. It’s like the chameleon of the dip world.

Besides its incredible ability to take on flavours, it’s also packed with protein (about 25g per cup!). So when you think about it, cottage cheese might be your new best friend!

Cottage Cheese Taco Dip- Blend it right.

This is a super easy recipe; it has 3 main ingredients and then whatever you want to put on it. But there is one step you’ll want to do right.

We use a proper food processor, one that is going to make sure all of those little lumps are fully incorporated into the dip. You could use a hand-held blender, but it might not get the consistency just right.

If you have a smaller food processor, I would recommend blending it in stages, just in case!

Add what you want, make it yours! 

This recipe is a true blank slate. There is so much you can do with it.

It’s perfect for filling sweet peppers, topping with shredded cheddar cheese, fresh avocado, jalapeno, and a good dab of your favourite hot sauce.

Or if you’re going for something a little easier and crowd-pleasing, you can serve it along with your favourite raw veggies and chips to upgrade your crudité game!
