Ingredients

  • 1/2 of 15 oz extra firm tofu ( not silken tofu) (drained)
  • 1/4 cup raw whole cashew nuts
  • 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened plain almond milk
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Instructions

  • In a food processor/blender combine all the ingredients
    and blend it until smooth and creamy.
  • Spoon it out in a glass jar and use immediately
    or refrigerate.

Notes

  • Pressing of tofu in this recipe is not required. Just drain and remove the excess water.
  • It’s easier to measure ½ of 15 oz tofu if you buy a twin pack. In that case use only one of the twin packs for this recipe.
  • This recipe stores well in the refrigerator for about 2 weeks in a glass container.
