Vegetable Tree with Non-Fat Garlicky Dressing
(makes 1 1/4 cup dressing)
| vegetables: broccoli, cauliflower florets, cherry tomatoes, and baby carrots |
| 1 | cup (236 g) low-fat (1%) cottage cheese |
| 2 | cloves garlic, peeled and cut into quarters |
| 2 | shallots, peeled and cut into quarters |
| 1 | teaspoon (5 ml) Dijon mustard |
| 1 | tablespoon (15 ml) mixed fresh herbs (thyme, chives, tarragon, basil dill) |
| 1/4 | teaspoon (0.6 ml) salt (optional) |
| 2 | tablespoon (30 ml) skim milk |
- Secure broccoli and cauliflower florets, cherry tomatoes, baby carrots, etc. onto a Styrofoam tree using toothpicks to hold the vegetables in place.
- Use a food processor fitted with metal blade, or a blender to combine all ingredients. How much of the skim milk do you start with? Can't say simply "all ingredients" in any case, because of Step 2.
- Process until smooth thinning with skim milk as desired. Refrigerate for up to 2 days.
