Scale
- 2 cups cottage cheese
- 1 cup shredded Monterey jack cheese
- 2 Tbsp taco seasoning*
Instructions
- Measure the cottage cheese, Monterey jack, and taco seasoning into a food processor or strong blender.
- Puree until very smooth, scraping down sides and stirring often. It will take a few minutes.
- Optional: If desired, transfer to a medium saucepan. Heat over low heat just until slightly warmed. Transfer to serving bowl immediately to stop the heating and help prevent curdling. If it does curdle, you can re-blend it in the food processor, blender, or using an immersion blender, and that will re-emulsify the mixture and make it smoother.
