Ingredients
Scale
- 16 oz. full-fat cottage cheese
- 4 oz. shredded cheddar cheese (about 1 cup)
- 1 teaspoon taco seasoning
- 1/2 cup pico de gallo
Instructions
- Blend the cottage cheese in a blender or food processor until smooth.
- Transfer the smooth cottage cheese into a microwave-safe bowl. Add the shredded cheddar cheese and taco seasoning.
- Microwave for 1 minute, stir, then microwave in 30-second intervals until smooth and creamy.
- Top with pico de gallo and serve with tortilla chips.
Notes
- You can use Monterey jack or pepper jack instead of cheddar cheese.
- For a single serving, blend the entire container of cottage cheese. Use 1/2 cup of cottage cheese, 1/4 teaspoon taco seasoning, and 1 oz. shredded cheese.
- Microwave in shorter intervals to prevent the cheese from becoming too thick, and remember to stir in between.
- We even tried microwaving the dip right in the cottage cheese container, and it worked like a charm!
