| Yogurt Cheese and Blue Cheese Dip |
Diet Type: Low Fat
|
Cooking Time: Over one hour
|
Ingredients:
|
| |
4 cups non-fat plain yogurt |
| |
1 tablespoon blue cheese |
| |
1 teaspoon lemon zest |
| |
1/2 teaspoon garlic juice |
| |
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro |
|
| |
Directions:
Line a colander or strainer with a large cloth napkin, a dish towel or a double layer of cheesecloth.
Turn 1 quart non-fat plain yogurt into the colander and set over a bowl to drain. Refrigerate. Let drain 6 hours to overnight, depending how stiff you want the cheese to be.
Cheese is "done" when it is the consistency of soft cream cheese. Stored in a covered container in the refrigerator, it will keep 2 weeks or more.
Makes 2 cups.
For the Blue Cheese Dip: Place 1/2 cup of yogurt cheese and remaining ingredients in a food processor. Blend until pale green.
