Instructions
Add all ingredients to a high-speed blender or food processor. Blend until smooth and creamy, about 30 seconds. Add water or milk 1 tablespoon at a time until it reaches your desired consistency.
Give it a taste and adjust seasonings if needed, add more lemon juice for tang, more salt for balance, or extra dill if you love that classic ranch flavor.
Enjoy immediately or let it chill for 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld. Use as a dip for veggies, dressing for salads, or drizzle on wraps and bowls!
Notes
Best texture right after blending: While chilling the dip deepens the flavor, the texture is at its smoothest and lightest right after blending—great if you’re serving it immediately.
Use full-fat cottage cheese for richness: You can use low-fat, but full-fat cottage cheese gives a creamier, more satisfying dip with a better mouthfeel.
Great for meal prep: This dip holds up well in the fridge and works in everything from snack boards to weekday lunch wraps, making it an easy meal prep staple.
