I fully realize this looks like a bowlful of nothing but trust me when I say this vegan tofu ricotta is SOY amazing! It’s super versatile and you can use it in any sweet or savory recipe that requires milk-based ricotta (for example, cannoli or stuffed shells or a base for your favorite yummy dips). It’s an awesome source of protein and healthy fats too. Reach out if you have any questions!
INGREDIENTS
1 block (14 oz) firm tofu
1/2 cup raw cashews, soaked in water for at least 2 hours
2 tbs lemon juice
Water (if needed)
Pinch of salt
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Drain and press the tofu to remove excess water
2. In a food processor, combine all of the ingredients and pulse together. The consistency will vary depending on how you want to use it in a recipe. I generally blend it smooth for dips and keep it granular for other recipes
3. For sweet recipes, I add powdered sugar to sweeten the ricotta. For savory recipes, add additional salt, black pepper, and other spices
