Yogurt Cheese

This recipe is based off of a Clean Eating recipe.
I love the idea that I can make cheese at home. This recipe tastes like cream cheese and the flavors are endless that you can create.

You will need:

16 oz of Greek Yogurt -(haven't tried soy yogurt-let me know if you do-I would love to hear the results)
Two Cheese Cloths
Strainer

Bowl that Strainer can set in

1:
Fold Cheese Cloths in half and place on top of each other inside a strainer

Set strainer on top of the bowl to collect the whey

2:
Pour the yogurt on top of the cheese cloth

If you are using two flavors mix together first and then pour on the cloth

Lightly lay the sides of the cloth over the yogurt to cover

                                                       3:

Place in the refrigerator for about 12 hours. The longer you leave it in the fridge the more moisture will be absorbed in the cloth and drain out, therefore leaving you with a firmer cheese.

4:
Once the cheese has sat and is firm, remove from the cheese cloth.
The cheese will remove itself very easily

You can top the cheese with jelly and enjoy with crackers; spread on toast or a bagel; try adding to a dessert recipe that calls for cream cheese; or try adding fruit or nuts to the mixture for some added flavor!
