Ingredients

  • 1 cup almond milk unsweetened
  • 4 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 5 tbsp cornstarch
  • ¼ tsp sea salt
  • ½ tsp lemon juice
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • 1 cup coconut yogurt unsweetened

Instructions

  • In a saucepan over medium heat, add the almond milk, olive oil, cornstarch, lemon juice, garlic powder, and salt.
  • Simmer over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens.
  • Add the coconut yogurt into the pan and keep stirring until the mixture achieves a smooth texture. Transfer to plastic wrap, and wrap it to form a mozzarella-shaped ball.
