Super Bowl Sunday is quickly approaching. I have to admit, I’m not a huge football fan but who doesn’t love a well planned get together. Good food, friends and the commercials are what it’s all about for me. Every year we attend a Super Bowl Party and consume an outrageous amount of calories. Pizza, taquitos, salsa, dips, chips, cheese balls, sloppy joes, cookies, brownies and the list goes on and on. My taste buds enjoy the endless buffet of choices, my hips – not so much. This year I am determined to find some lighter and healthier options to share at our Super Bowl Feast. Let me be clear, I love food and want to be healthy but I am in no way willing to sacrifice when it comes to taste. If it’s going in my mouth, I still want to enjoy it.

This quick and easy Cottage Cheese Ranch Dip is a great alternative to the traditional Sour Cream Ranch Dip. It is a lighter version with out sacrificing the taste.

Ingredients

1 16 oz Small Curd Cottage Cheese
1 packet Ranch Dressing

Directions
Add ranch mix to cottage cheese, mix and serve.

If the texture of cottage cheese bothers you, give it a quick spin in the blender. Then add the ranch mix.

Serve with your favorite veggies, chips or crackers.
