Instructions
- In a blender, combine the cottage cheese and half of the shredded cheddar cheese. Blend until smooth to create a creamy base.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the blended cheesy mixture with the salsa and diced tomatoes. Mix well until all ingredients are integrated.
- Transfer the mixture to an oven-safe dish and sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese on top.
- Place the dish in the microwave and cook on high for about 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. You can also bake it in a preheated oven set to 350°F (175°C) for 10-15 minutes if preferred.
- Remove from heat and let it cool slightly. Sprinkle with fresh cilantro if desired, before serving.
- Serve warm with tortilla chips for dipping!
Chef’s Tips
- Feel free to spice it up by adding jalapeños or diced bell peppers for an extra kick.
- For a creamier texture, mix in some cream cheese along with the cottage cheese.
- This dip can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days; just reheat before serving!
