This dill pickle cottage cheese dip is a tangy, creamy, and protein-packed snack bursting with zesty dill pickle flavor. It’s quick to prepare, refreshing, and perfect for dipping or spreading.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups cottage cheese (full-fat or low-fat)
  • 1/2 cup dill pickles, finely chopped
  • 2–3 tbsp pickle juice (from the jar)
  • 1 tbsp fresh dill or 1 tsp dried dill
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder or 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tsp lemon juice (optional, for brightness)

Instructions

  1. In a food processor or blender, combine cottage cheese, garlic powder, onion powder (if using), and pickle juice.
  2. Blend until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed.
  3. Stir in chopped dill pickles and fresh dill by hand to maintain texture.
  4. Season to taste with salt, pepper, and lemon juice if using.
  5. Chill for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld.

Notes

  • Stir in Greek yogurt for added creaminess.
  • Add chopped jalapeños or hot sauce for a spicy version.
  • For a chunkier texture, mash ingredients by hand instead of blending.
  • Top with shredded cheddar for a cheesy pickle dip twist.
  • Chopped green onions or chives add a fresh bite.
