1 cup plain cottage cheese
2 tbsp mayonnaise
4 tsp lemon juice (or more to taste)
1 tbsp water, plus more as needed

1 tsp garlic powder
1/8 tsp black pepper
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh chives and/or flat-leaf parsley (or a combination of the two)
1/4 tsp salt
2 romaine heads
Mix cottage cheese, mayonnaise, lemon juice, water, onion powder, garlic powder, salt and pepper. If it's too thick, add an additional 1 tsp of water, more if necessary. Add parsley/chives. Taste and season further if needed.
