Vegan Ricotta Cheese

This vegan cottage cheese or ricotta has a tender, crumbly texture and a very neutral flavor. This makes it ideal for use in both sweet and savory recipes.

The result is very similar to animal-based cottage cheese but without fats that are harmful to our body and, as it is entirely plant-based, it is also cholesterol-free and lactose-free.

It is super easy and quick to make and, if we also add a little garlic and oil, we get the perfect ricotta to use in pasta dishes such as spaghetti or macaroni, to fill ravioli and tortellini, or to add to pizzas and calzones.

As for its nutrients, it provides complete protein, fiber, isoflavones, lecithin, omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins E, K and B (B1, B2, B3, B6 and B9, or folic acid), chromium, lithium, vanadium, copper, molybdenum, manganese, phosphorus, potassium, magnesium, zinc and plenty of calcium.
