Ingredients:

Serving

1 lb firm regular tofu (drained -16 oz package)
3 tbsp fresh lemon juice
2 tsp sweet syrup (mild and your choice )
1 tsp dried basil (optional)
1/4 tsp garlic powder (optional)
1/2 tsp salt

Directions:

Break the tofu into large chunks. Place in a sauce pan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, simmer for 5 minutes. Drain well.
Chill covered in the fridge until cool enough to handle.
Crumble and place in a bowl with remaining ingredients. Remember leave out the herbs if you want this to be sweet. Mash and blend until mixture has a fine grainy texture, similar to ricotta or cottage cheese. Chill several more hours or over night before serving.
This will store for 5 days in the fridge.
