Instructions

1Pour the cottage cheese and Greek yogurt into a blender. Blend until completely smooth and creamy, so the spread becomes silky.
2Wash the fresh herbs (chives, parsley and basil) thoroughly, dry them, and chop them as finely as possible.
3Transfer the blended cottage cheese into a bowl. Add the grated garlic, salt, pepper and chopped herbs.
4Stir the chopped walnuts and dried cranberries into the spread by hand. These will add crunchiness and an interesting sweet-tart aftertaste.
5Mix everything well and let it rest in the refrigerator for 15 minutes before serving so the flavors can combine. Serve with whole-grain bread or as a dip with fresh vegetables.
