Dip Ingredients
- 1½ cup cottage cheese

- 2 teaspoons dried dill
- 1½ teaspoon garlic powder

- Prepare the ingredients: Measure out the cottage cheese, dried parsley, dried dill, garlic powder, onion powder, and kosher salt, ensuring all spices are fresh for optimal flavor.
- Blend the dip: Add all ingredients to a food processor. Blend for 1 to 2 minutes until the mixture is smooth and creamy, ensuring the flavors are fully incorporated for that classic ranch taste.
- Adjust seasoning: Taste the ranch dip and adjust salt or spices according to your preference for a perfectly balanced flavor.
- Serve or store: Serve immediately with your favorite dippers or transfer the dip to an airtight container. Refrigerate until ready to use, keeping it fresh for up to 3 days.
Notes
- For a thinner consistency, add a little milk or buttermilk while blending.
- Fresh herbs can be used instead of dried, but reduce the quantity by half.
- Use low-fat or full-fat cottage cheese depending on your dietary preference.
- Store leftover dip in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- Great as a healthier alternative to traditional ranch dressings made with mayonnaise and sour cream.
