Notes
Prep Tips - If texture is an issue, the cottage cheese can be blended until smooth in a food processor before combining with the other ingredients. Most of the time we are too lazy to do this (ha!), but we will admit it does make the dip even more creamy.
Serving Tip - The dip tend to have excess liquid (water) when first serving due to the frozen spinach and cottage cheese. If needed, simply drain the liquid and discard.
