Unfortunately for me, I am still firmly attached to dairy products, well not milk, definitely cheese & yogurt!

That said, this coconut "yogurt" recipe was in one of the newsletters that hits my inbox on a regular basis and I thought I would post it here in case anyone is interested in trying it. It's not listed but this is also Paleo.

Super Thick Coconut "Yogurt"

Vegan, gluten-free, grain-free, no bake/raw, nut-free, oil-free, soy-free

This “shortcut” coconut yogurt is as simple and fresh as it
gets! I occasionally buy coconut yogurt from the grocery
store, but when I want something that is super fresh and
without any added ingredients I will make this version for a
fun treat. Granted, it's not a true yogurt since there's no
fermentation, but I love how quick this version is....

Ingredients:
2 cups fresh young Thai coconut meat (or thawed Young Thai Coconut Meat, see headnote)
1/2 cup coconut water (or use filtered water in a pinch)
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice (reduce for a less tart flavor)
1/4-1/2 teaspoon probiotic powder, optional (you can empty probiotic capsules, if desired)
pinch of pink salt or fine grain sea salt
liquid sweetener to taste (I use 1 tablespoon natural cane sugar)

Directions:

1. Add all ingredients into a high speed blender and blend on low, gradually increasing the speed to high, until super smooth. Keep blending until it’s not grainy anymore. Adjust sweetness to taste by adding sweetener if desired and blending again. I add a tablespoon of cane sugar and blend on high to pulverize it in my Vitamix.

2. Spoon the yogurt into an air-tight container and chill in the fridge for at least a couple hours.

3. Serve with granola and chia seed jam, parfait-style, if desired. Or simply enjoy alone.
