    I love the flavours of cranberry and rosemary together, they are a match made in "cream cheese" heaven.  Enjoy on your favourite raw cracker.

     

    INGREDIENTS

    The "Cream Cheese"

    2 Cups Cashews, soaked overnight in water

    3/4 Cup Warm Water

    1 Tsp Probiotic powder - see FBR Tips below

    1/2 Lemon, juiced

    1-2 Tbsp Nutritional Yeast 

    1/4-1/2 Cup Dried Cranberries, unsweetened

    1-2 Tbsp Fresh Rosemary, chopped into tiny pieces

     

    The Topping

    Sprig of Fresh Rosemary

     

    The Directions 

    1. Rinse soaked cashews and place in blender, add probiotic powder and warm water and blend until smooth

    2. Add in lemon juice and blend

    3. Place strainer or seive on plate

    4. Place cheese cloth or nut milk bag into strainer (I use nut milk bag and strainer)  

    5. Spoon mixture into cheese cloth or nut milk bag 

    6. Make sure mixture is covered and place a plate on top strainer

    7. Set aside for 24hrs - at room tempeture or slightly warmer place

    8. Place "cheese" into fold and fold in nutritional yeast, cranberries and rosemary

    9. Ideally set a side for a day to let it firm up

    10. Spoon mixture into a bowl and top with Rosemary Sprig 

     

    FBR Tip

    • You can get probiotic in powder form or capsule form, 1 teaspoon of probiotic powder is approx 10 capsules.  You should never use the whole capsule, you have to remove the powder from the capsule.  I would recommend powder form as it is easier then having to breakdown the capsules

    ​

    • Nutritional yeast has a very distinct flavour so add a little bit at a time so it doesn't over power the "cheese"

     

    • I have a dehyrator, so I placed the mixture in the dehyrator.  You can also put it in a microwave if you have one

    ​

    • This recipe takes a few days to prepare, so you will want to plan ahead for this one
