Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 Jalapeno Pepper
  • 1 Clove Garlic ( optional)
  • 1 Avocado, about ½ cup after cutting and scooping out the flesh
  • ¾ cup Cottage Cheese
  • 2 tbsp Lime Juice
  • ½ – ¾ tsp Salt (adjust to taste)
  • ⅛ – ¼ tsp Black Pepper Powder (adjust to taste)
  • ⅛ tsp Cumin Powder
  • ¼ cup finely chopped Red Onion or Scallions (I used red onion)
  • 2-3 tbsp Tomato, pulp removed (optional)
  • 4 tbsp chopped Cilantro

Instruction

  • Take jalapeno pepper and garlic in a food processor bowl, process it for few seconds until jalapeno and garlic are minced.
  • Make a cut around avocado, lengthwise. Twist the avocado to separate it into two. Remove the seed and scoop out the flesh.
  • To the same food processor bowl, add avocado, cottage cheese, lime juice, salt, black pepper and process all the ingredients until well blended.
  • Transfer to a serving bowl, throw in rest of the ingredients, mix and chill until ready to serve.
  • Use it as a dip for tortilla chips or veggies, or use as a spread for bread. I like it better as a spread on bread than as a dip.
