Blended cottage cheese makes the base ultra smooth and high in protein, while chili powder, cumin, and smoked paprika give it that classic Tex-Mex kick. Stir in melted cheddar and Rotel, and you’ve got a queso that tastes just as indulgent as the original. Serve it with chips, drizzle it over nachos, or even spoon it over tacos—this stuff is GOLD.

YOU’LL NEED:
-1 c low-fat or full-fat cottage cheese
-1 tsp chili powder
-1/2 tsp cumin
-1/2 tsp smoked paprika
-1/2 c shredded sharp cheddar
-3 T milk
-1/2 c drained Rotel

Blend everything except the Rotel until smooth. Heat gently, stirring in the Rotel and until melty and creamy. DEVOUR!
