       Serve this dip with ridged potato chips or veggies, it's also great on baked potatoes.

     The first time I had this cool and creamy dip was over 20 years ago, made by my friend's Mom.  Recently I got a craving for it and called my friend Janette to see if she had her Mom's recipe.  Yes, she did!  So thank you Janette and Mama Naty for this awesome dip!

Ingredients:

1-8oz. package of cream cheese, softened.
1-16oz. cottage cheese, small curd.
1-16oz. sour cream
1 packet of 'Hidden Valley Buttermilk Ranch Dressing'
3 green onions, whites and greens diced, (save a few sliced green tops for garnish).

Directions:

1. In a large bowl, whisk softened cream cheese until smooth. (If your cream cheese is cold, place it in the microwave and heat until soft).
2. To the bowl of cream cheese add the cottage cheese, sour cream and contents of the Ranch Dressing packet and whisk until blended.
3. Stir in the diced green onions, and garnish the top with a few reserved green diced tops, cover with plastic and chill before serving.  For best results make the day ahead and chill over-night.
