STRAWBERRY YOGURT!



This yogurt is extremely delicious.  Once you make this and find out how easy and yummy it tastes, I doubt you'll ever buy packaged yogurt again!  


 Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups fresh, ripe strawberries
1/2 cup cashews, soaked for 7 hours
1 TBSP maple syrup or raw agave nectar
1 tsp fresh lemon juice (about 1/2 lemon)
Fresh strawberries for serving *optional







Drain your cashews and put them in the blender.  Add the rest of your ingredients.





Blend until creamy, about 30 seconds. 





There you have it!  Homemade yogurt!  I garnished it with coconut flakes.   ENJOY!!



*Notes:  If you are using frozen strawberries, thaw them out by running them under cold water for a few minutes.  This will make it easier for your blender.  You will have to use your tamper to push them down into the blade.  Your blender might sound a little wild, but it should still only take about 30 seconds.  Easiest to use nice, fresh strawberries.  :)

*Also, I have doubled this recipe to make a double batch.  It will last for 3 days in your fridge in a sealed container.
