Creamy Pesto Dip
4 steps
Prep:8min
This pesto is more of a spread than a sauce, and is my personal favorite for dipping raw vegetables or for spreading on a sandwich. It's made creamy by swapping olive oil for cottage cheese, which is honestly way better than it sounds. I know you're probably scared of cottage cheese reading through many of these recipes, but honestly give it a shot, you'll be surprised. Each serving is about 2 tbsp or 32g.
