Hi. I'm Rachael Pendergast, a certified health coach out of Chicago, Illinois. Today, we're going to be doing a healthy snack using lemons. I decided to show you guys how to make a lemon pudding with tofu. The ingredients you'll need is 10.25 ounce of tofu silken, so it's the one that's easier to mush up, a full cup of sugar, if you can go with natural sugar it's the best way to go. You want 3/4 cup of fresh lemon juice, and two tablespoons of cornstarch. So all you're going to do for this is you're going to use a blender or a food processor. You're going to take the tofu and you're going to kind of just mush it up before it's in there. It kind of feels gross but it's OK. Your hands are the better thing to use. Then we're going to take a cup of sugar and pour it in there. You're going to take your lemon juice. It's kind of bubbling a little bit but that's OK. Then we're going to add our cornstarch. We're going to get it all in there. And then we're going to blend it. And you're going to make sure that it's all smooth and has the same consistency throughout. And then you're going to pour it into your glass bowl. If you want to taste it beforehand to make sure it's sweet enough for you, you can go ahead and do that. If it's not sweet enough you can add a little bit more sugar. The next thing you're going to do is cover your bowl, put it in the microwave and cook it on full power for five to seven minutes. And every two minutes you're going to want to whisk it until it's thick. After you're done with that you're going to pour it into individual serving size cups. You're going to put it in your fridge for about five to ten minutes or until it's cooled. And then we're going to have your end product looking something like this. So there you have it, lemon pudding, a healthy snack using lemon. I hope you enjoyed learning about this recipe. Again, my name is Rachael Pendergast.
