Whipped Lemon Herb Cottage Cheese

250g low-fat cottage cheese
1 tbsp lemon juice + zest from 1 small lemon
1 small garlic clove, minced
1-2 tbsp fresh dill, chopped
1-2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Optional: a little extra lemon juice or olive oil for a thinner texture and dill for extra flavour

Place the cottage cheese, lemon juice, lemon zest, garlic, dill, parsley, and black pepper in the food processor. Blend until completely smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed.

Taste and adjust seasoning. Add extra lemon juice or a drizzle of olive oil if you want a thinner texture. Serve immediately as a dip, spread on toast, or with fresh vegetables or crackers.
