This adorably sweet and mild easy-to make "cheese" tastes amazing with fruit, and could easily be paired with other desserts as well or just eaten on it's own. After eating bite after bite, my husband and I were trying to put a finger on exactly which dairy based cheese it reminds us of.. since it's been so long since we've eaten dairy. Cottage cheese! Similar to cottage cheese you can pair it with fruits, have it for breakfast, or just enjoy spoonfuls of it for a high-protein and wholesome treat but without any cows involved. It's mildly sweet, but just so damn good you'll want to eat the whole thing. If you want a plant-based, healthy, wholesome, and tasty mild cheese, give this a go! Recipe from
This Cheese is Nuts.
Ingredients:
1 ½ cup cashews (presoaked for a few hours, or overnight)
juice of 2 lemons
Instructions:
Drain the cashews. Blend softened cashews and lemon juice in a food processor until as smooth as possible and until they start to form a ball/clump together.
Place the cheese mixture in the center of a cheesecloth or nut bag. Gather into a bundle, tie the top, and refrigerate overnight.
Return the cheese ball to the food processor and blend again, this time until fluffy.
Put on a plate and "shape" into a ball or any desired shape. I found this easy to do with a silicone food scraper/spatula. Serve with fruit, use as a spread, or just enjoy by the spoonful!
