Cottage Cheese Ranch Dip

This cottage cheese dip is my go-to snack when I want something savory, but I don’t feel like eating a bowl of cottage cheese. It’s a thicker, more dippable version of my cottage cheese ranch, and honestly, it’s so good, it will get you reaching for more veggies.  

Ingredients

To make this ranch-inspired cottage cheese dip, you’ll need cottage cheese, a little lime juice, and pantry seasonings like dried dill, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper. 

Making Ranch Dip with Cottage Cheese

Everything is blended together in under a minute in your blender. For the thickest texture, I recommend holding back some of the liquid from the cottage cheese tub.

Storing This Dip

This high-protein ranch dip can be stored in an air-tight container in the fridge for up to three days. When you pull it out to use it a few days later give it a good stir if any of the ingredients have separated after sitting in the refrigerator.

    This was such an incredible cottage cheese ranch dip recipe! My kids love veggie platters, but I have trouble getting protein in them, so this high protein dip was exactly what we needed.
