Don't judge by the picture, but this sauce combination came together and tastes amazing.   I wanted to see if I could mimic a creamy ricotta-style sauce with cottage cheese, and I think I came pretty close.   Check out the recipe for this garlicky cottage cheese and avocado sauce with zoodles dressed up with toasted pistachios, fennel, chickpeas and fresh peas. 
INGREDIENTS


SAUCE
  • 1 4 oz container of 2% cottage cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 avocado
  • Salt and pepper
  • Squeeze lemon


ZOODLES
  • 1 yellow or green zucchini
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1/2 cup chopped fennel
  • 2/3 cup peas
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted pistachios
  • 1/2 cup chickpeas
  • 1 tablespoon chopped shallot
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil


  • Saute garlic and shallots on low heat with olive oil for about 5 minutes.  Add pistachios, fennel and chickpeas and continue to cook on low heat another 5 minutes. Add peas and a squeeze of lemon and let simmer on low.
  • Meanwhile, zoodle the zucchini and add to the sauce pan and mix with vegetables, cook on low heat.
  • In blender, mix 1/2 avocado, olive oil, cottage cheese, salt and pepper and lemon and blend until smooth.  You may need to add olive oil to get desired consistency.
  • Once zoodles are cooked (yellow tends to take much less time), turn off heat and add sauce and mix thoroughly.
  • Serve with additional fresh squeezed lemon and enjoy this high protein, low carb, flavorful meal!
