- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 1 cup finely chopped spinach (fresh or thawed frozen)
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 cup Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons shredded Parmesan cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Blend Cottage Cheese: Place the cottage cheese in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth and creamy, removing any lumps to ensure a smooth dip texture.
- Mix Ingredients: Transfer the blended cottage cheese into a bowl. Add the finely chopped spinach, garlic powder, Greek yogurt, shredded Parmesan cheese, and season with salt and pepper. Stir well until all ingredients are evenly combined.
- Serve or Chill: The dip can be served immediately for a fresh taste, or covered and chilled in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors meld together. Serve with crackers, vegetable sticks, or bread.
Notes
- Use fresh spinach for a brighter flavor or thaw frozen spinach thoroughly and squeeze out excess water to avoid watery dip.

- For a richer dip, substitute Greek yogurt with sour cream or use full-fat cottage cheese.
