Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Process the basil and garlic in a food processor for a minute or two.
  2. Add remaining ingredients and process until smooth. This might take a couple of minutes; you need to get all the lumps out of the cottage cheese.
  3. Enjoy over pasta or veggies, or use a half cup of this with a 15-oz. can of chickpeas, 2 tablespoons of tahini, and a tablespoon of lemon juice to make a yummy pesto hummus.
