Start by scooping your cottage cheese into a mixing bowl, breaking it apart with a spoon until it’s smooth and creamy with no large curds.
Add the Greek yogurt to the cottage cheese and whisk together until the mixture is smooth, silky, and well combined—this creates a rich, creamy base.
Finely chop the fresh chives and parsley, then fold them into the cheese mixture with a spatula, releasing vibrant herbal aromas with each stir.
Squeeze the lemon juice directly into the bowl, then stir to evenly distribute the bright citrus flavor that lifts the richness of the cheese.
Add the minced garlic and drizzle in the olive oil, then stir everything together until the dip is smooth, fragrant, and has a glossy finish.
Season generously with salt and freshly ground pepper, tasting and adjusting until the flavors are balanced and vibrant.
Gently fold all ingredients together, making sure herbs and seasonings are evenly distributed, and the texture remains creamy.
Transfer the dip to a serving dish, smoothing the top with the back of a spoon for a tidy presentation.
Let the dip rest in the fridge for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld beautifully, then give it a quick stir before serving.
Serve chilled with crackers, fresh vegetables, or toasted bread—garnish with extra herbs if desired for an inviting finish.
