Dead Simple Lemon-Pepper Tofu Spread
yields about one pound
1/2 cup pepitas, roasted and lightly salted
14-16 ounces firm tofu, drained
1/2 tsp fine sea or kosher salt
2 TBSP lemon juice
zest of 1 lemon
1 tsp freshly cracked black pepper
Process pepitas in a food processor to fine crumbs. Add tofu, salt, and lemon juice, and blend until very smooth, pausing to scrape the sides as needed. Stir in lemon zest and black pepper. Adjust salt, if needed (particularly if you use unsalted pepitas).
Flavor is best after chilling for an hour or so, but can be used immediately.
