Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (240 ml) cottage cheese, drained
  • 4 ounces (115 g) cream cheese, softened to room temperature
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) sour cream or Greek yogurt (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon (5 ml) fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon (15 g) everything bagel seasoning
  • 1/4 teaspoon (1.25 ml) garlic powder
  • Salt to taste (start with 1/8 teaspoon)
  • Black pepper to taste
  • Chopped fresh chives or dill for garnish (optional)
  • Optional add-ins: finely chopped cucumber, radish, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, hot sauce

Instructions

  1. Soften the cream cheese by leaving it at room temperature for about 15 minutes. Drain the cottage cheese well using a fine mesh sieve to avoid excess liquid.
  2. In a food processor, combine the drained cottage cheese and softened cream cheese. Pulse until smooth and fluffy, about 1 to 2 minutes, scraping down the sides occasionally.
  3. Add sour cream or Greek yogurt and fresh lemon juice. Pulse again until fully incorporated and creamy.
  4. Add everything bagel seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Pulse a few times to mix evenly. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
  5. Spoon the dip into a serving bowl. Sprinkle a little more everything bagel seasoning on top and garnish with chopped fresh chives or dill.
  6. Serve immediately or chill for 20-30 minutes to let flavors meld. Stir before serving if chilled.

Notes

Drain cottage cheese well to avoid watery dip. Use room temperature cream cheese for smoother whipping. Pulse in short bursts to avoid overheating. Adjust salt gradually due to salty seasoning. Can be customized with herbs, spices, or add-ins. Serve chilled or at room temperature. Store in airtight container in fridge up to 3 days. Not recommended to freeze.
