Ingredients
- 2 cups raw cashews soaked for at least two hours, drained and rinsed
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
- 1/3 cup water
- 1 teaspoon mellow white miso
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
-
Place all of the ingredients in a food processer fitted with an s-blade and process until it looks fluffy and “ricotta-like”. It could take 5 to 10 minutes, and you may need to stop the food processer and scrape down the sides with a spatula a few times.

Store in the fridge until ready to use. Vegan Ricotta will last for about a week in the refrigerator.
