Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup raw nuts or seeds

  • 2 garlic clove
  • 1/4 cup fresh squeezed lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt

Instructions

  1. In food processor, add nuts/seeds and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Process until crumbles form and mixture is paste-like.
  2. Set aside in a bowl and mix in with mozzerella goat cheese and mix until incorporated.
