Now that we are in winter, Will is bouncing back and forth between hockey and basketball. We have had multiple instances where we have to do a quick uniform change in the car. It sounds chaotic (and it is!), but Will loves every second of it.
This weekend, Will got to have his hockey jamboree – they always make it super fun for the kids! This year, the theme was “Dress to Impress”. I think Will understood the assignment.
They set up a red carpet and let all the kids walk it. It was so fun seeing all the kids just light up when they saw everything that was set up for them.

Dressing consistency
I do not like chunky dressing. There – I said it. Dressing consistency is extremely important. I think it makes or breaks a salad.
But, then this dressing is made with cottage cheese (which is obviously chunky). By blending the cottage cheese, the dressing becomes extremely smooth, giving us the perfect dressing consistency.

Avocado cottage cheese dressing: faq’s
I want to use this as a dip. What should I do to thicken it?
Don’t add any water! With the ingredients listed, the dressing will come out a little thicker. This consistency might be perfect to be used as a dip. Otherwise, you can add additional cottage cheese to thicken it a bit.
If I prefer a thinner dressing, what should I do?
In this case, add water! Slowly add water (and blend), until you have reached the desired consistency. Make sure to taste and season it after blending.
