Tofu Cream Cheese

This Tofu Cream Cheese is a dairy-free alternative to traditional cream cheese made with protein-packed tofu and nutrient-rich cashews. With the same creamy texture as its traditional counterpart, it is surprisingly low in calories, fats, and cholesterol yet bursting with plant-based protein. Spread on bagels, toast, and crackers, or enjoy it as a dip for vegetables and chips.
