Description

This 5 minute vegan cottage cheese is ultra creamy, mildly cheesy, and perfectly tangy. Keto, vegan, and protein packed!


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 (14) oz package firm tofu
  • 1 cup unsweetened plain vegan yogurt (I like Culina Plain and Simple)
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons sea salt
  • 1-2 teaspoons nutritional yeast, to taste

Instructions

  1. Drain the tofu and pat it dry with a kitchen or paper towel.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the yogurt, lemon juice, salt, and nutritional yeast.
  3. Crumble in the tofu and stir gently to combine. Enjoy as you would cottage cheese!

Notes

Yogurt: Culina Plain & Simple is quite tangy. If your yogurt is less tangy, you may need to add more lemon. 

Salt: if using kosher, the measurements will be different. Adjust to taste.
