In a mixing bowl, combine cottage cheese, diced cucumber, bell pepper, cherry tomatoes, and chopped chicken or turkey.
Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and a pinch of chili flakes.
Add a squeeze of lemon juice and a drizzle of olive oil or sugar-free ranch.
Toss gently until everything is evenly coated and creamy.
Serve immediately as a salad, or enjoy as a protein-packed dip with veggies or crackers.
