Equipment

  • Blender

Ingredients
  

  • 1 block firm tofu 14 oz block
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp garlic salt
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp nutritional yeast
  • dried cranberries, crushed pistachios, chopped parsley for topping
  • extra olive oil for dipping fingers in

Instructions
 

  • Blend all the ingredients, except for the toppings, in a blender on high speed until no chunks remain.
  • Rub your hands in some of the extra olive oil so the mixture doesn't stick to your hands. Pour it out into a plate and shape it into a ball. This should be the plate you want to serve it in, because it's hard to move once it's settled.
  • Add the toppings all over the ball. Using your hands, press each of the toppings all over the ball until they're stuck on.
  • Place in the fridge for an hour to harden. Then remove from fridge and serve with pretzels, veggie sticks or other finger foods.
