What goes into Cottage Cheese Green Goddess Dip

For starters, I use 4% milk-fat cottage cheese and drain any excess liquid from it. The full-fat cottage cheese seems to make a more sturdy dip. Next, I use herbs from my garden, typically basil, mint, chives, and parsley. You can use other green herbs like tarragon or oregano, I just happen to like this flavor combination of herbs. I add an avocado to increase the healthy fat ratio in the dip. I look for a ripe, almost overripe avocado and mash it before I add it to the food processor. I also add a little garlic and lemon juice. The lemon juice keeps the dip looking fresh and green.

What to serve with Cottage Cheese Green Goddess Dip

I feel like this is best with stick-style vegetables or rounds like cucumber circles. The sticks are strong and hold a lot of dip! This dip is also delicious with toasted naan. For a really bumped-up flavor profile, use garlic naan. Toasted bread sticks work very well with this dip, too. Good crackers will work well with the dip, especially whole wheat-style crackers.
