Roasted red pepper feta cottage cheese dressing is a creamy, pourable dressing blended from cottage cheese, feta cheese, jarred roasted red peppers, and a spoon of sun-dried tomato. It tastes like sweet roasted pepper and salty feta with a smoky paprika edge underneath, and it takes 5 minutes in a blender with no cooking. I make a jar most weeks in summer, because a plain grilled chicken breast and a handful of cucumber turns into an actual high protein low carb lunch the second this goes over it.

Process

Cook Mode

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Add the cottage cheese, feta, roasted red peppers, sun-dried tomatoes, lemon juice, garlic powder, sweet paprika, oregano, smoked paprika, and black pepper to a single-serve blender cup.
Blend until completely smooth and light, about 1 to 2 minutes. It should look almost whipped. Stop and scrape down the sides once so the feta does not hide in a corner.
Check the texture. If you want it pourable rather than spoonable, add the water half a tablespoon at a time and blend again briefly until it is the consistency you like.
Taste. Add a pinch more salt only if your feta was mild. Spoon into a small jar or straight over your salad.

Notes

Store in a sealed jar in the fridge for up to 5 days. It firms up cold, so stir before using or loosen with a splash of water.
Do not freeze. Cottage cheese turns grainy after thawing.
If a pitcher blender is all you have, blend the whole tub of cottage cheese smooth first and measure out of that.
Serve with: Greek chicken salad
