Ingredients

• 3/4 cup cottage cheese
• 1/2 cup buttermilk
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 scallion (green onion), chopped
• 1 tablespoon chopped sun-dried tomatoes (optional)

Instructions

1. Place all the ingredients in a food processor or blender. Process or blend until smooth. Transfer to a small bowl, cover, and chill until ready to use.

Makes about 1-1/2 cups.

Options

The sun-dried tomatoes make this seem fancy. If you want to make it more robust, try adding some garlic. And if you want it a bit lighter, use low-fat cheeses. Don’t have any buttermilk? Use sour cream or yogurt instead. Make it truly your own “house special” dressing!
