Ranch Cottage Cheese Dip
Ranch Cottage Cheese Dip is an easy, high-protein dip that everyone will love! This is perfect to prep ahead and have all week for after-school snacks, lunch dipping, or to make for game day and parties.
Our family is a big fan of all things ranch. From my Greek Yogurt Ranch Dressing to my Chicken Bacon Ranch Pasta, we eat an embarrassing amount of it. I've been seeing all sorts of dips made with cottage cheese (like my Cottage Cheese Taco Dip!) and had to make a ranch version.
This Ranch Cottage Cheese Dip is so tasty and could not be easier to make. It requires only three ingredients, and is seriously packed with protein! Now that school is back, I'll be making this weekly to send with the boys for their daily snack and in Emma's lunch. Oh and for me to snack on throughout the day, of course!

Ingredients
Cottage Cheese - I always use whole milk cottage cheese. My favorite brand is Good Culture.

Variations
Different Seasoning Mix - you could use taco mix, onion mix, or Green Goddess blend for a different flavor profile.
Sour Cream - instead of Greek yogurt, you can use sour cream, if that's what you have on hand. You will still get a super creamy texture.
Make Own Ranch Seasoning - if you have a homemade ranch seasoning recipe that you like, feel free to use that! Many have parsley and other fresh herbs, along with onion powder, and garlic powder.
Add Fresh Herbs - you can use the dry ranch dressing mix and then add even more fresh herbs like fresh dill and fresh parsley. I would start with 1-2 tablespoons.

Expert Tips
