Description

This Whipped Tofu Dip makes a refreshing and quite pretty addition to an appetizer platter. Avocado, fresh herbs, and lime come together to make a light dip that pairs perfectly with crudité or your favorite crackers for easy entertaining. Plus, it can be made ahead!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound silken tofu
  • 1 medium avocado
  • 1/2 cup vegan cream cheese
  • 1/3 cup well packed fresh cilantro 
  • 1/3 cup well packed fresh parsley
  • 1 tsp lime zest
  • 2 1/2 tbsp freshly squeezed lime juice
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. Add all of the ingredients to a food processor.
  2. Blend until smooth, scraping down the sides as necessary.  
  3. Taste and adjust salt and pepper as desired. 
  4. Garnish dip with any leftover herbs and serve with fresh veggies.

Notes

We love serving this dip with fresh veggies, crackers, or tortilla chips. It has a texture that's similar to a creamy guacamole, so feel free to use it wherever you'd use guac.

Be sure to taste and adjust salt and pepper before serving.

You can make this recipe ahead of time and stored in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

Change up the herbs: you can really use any fresh herbs of choice in this tofu dip, including cilantro, parsley, dill, tarragon, basil, mint, etc. 

Vegan cream cheese: this adds a bit of tanginess and extra creaminess to our tofu dip. You can also use plain non dairy yogurt or vegan sour cream.
