5 MINUTE VEGAN CREAM CHEESE

5 Minute Vegan Cream Cheese is made with whole food ingredients and is ridiculously easy to make. It tastes amazing, too!

I don’t know if there’s anything I miss more than cream cheese. Before going vegan, I didn’t care much for meat, or milk, but CHEESE…. It seems like I’m not alone in this. I’ve heard over and over again from people that the hardest thing to replace or give up is cheese.

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups raw cashews, soaked
• 1/4 cup unsweetened non-dairy yogurt
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• Optional:
• 3 tablespoons chopped chives
• 1 teaspoon onion powder

Instructions

1. Soak the cashews either overnight in cool water in the refrigerator, or for at least 30 minutes in hot water. The longer you soak the cashews, the creamier the cream cheese will be.
2. Drain and rinse the soaked cashews, and add them to a food processor. Add the unsweetened non-dairy yogurt, lemon juice, apple cider vinegar and salt. Blend until smooth, stopping to scrape the sides as needed. 
3. Taste; add any additional salt or lemon juice, if desired. Add the chives and onion powder if using, and pulse until incorporated.
