It’s not a party without chip dip. Try this creamy Cottage Cheese Chip Dip the next time you host—bright dill and ranch notes make it irresistible.
About this Dip
This cottage cheese version riffs on the familiar French onion-style chip dip, but it’s even creamier and more substantial. Blending cottage cheese creates a thick, protein-packed base, and fresh dill adds a lively, herbaceous lift. The result is rich, tangy, and ready in minutes.
Simple to prepare in about five minutes, this dip is ideal for parties, tailgates, or holiday gatherings. It pairs perfectly with potato chips, pretzels, crackers, or raw vegetables like carrots, celery, bell peppers, and cucumbers. It also makes a flavorful spread for sandwiches or wraps.
Recipe Ingredients
- Fat free cottage cheese – Using fat-free yields a firmer dip; regular cottage cheese will still be tasty but a bit thinner.
- Lite mayo – Adds extra creaminess without a lot of fat.
- Fresh dill – Bright, classic flavor for chip dip.
- Ranch seasoning – Half a package provides concentrated savory flavor; you can substitute green onion seasoning if preferred.
- Lemon juice – A squeeze of lemon balances the richness with a touch of acidity.
