In my scramble to use up some of the many seasonal vegetables and some extra cottage cheese from the fridge, I made up this lovely, creamy, low-fat and healthy dip. Blending the cottage cheese gives it a lovely creamy texture. Your guests won’t even guess this is cottage cheese. I have a feeling it would taste even better with a few blue cheese crumbles … well, if you like blue cheese (I do!). It’s super-easy to mix up on the spot, too, in case you have last-minute guests and need something quick to serve.
