    Please note that this recipe is not AIP/Paleo. However, I’m looking forward to changing the recipe to make it compliant soon.

    There are no words to describe how good this cheesecake tastes. It’s about as close as you’re going to get to traditional cheesecake. The flavor and texture is amazingly close for not having any eggs. I like the taste of tofu so I wasn’t sure if I was going to be able to pass it off as cheesecake. We had a bunch of people over to for appetizers and drinks with the cheesecake as the dessert. We had a few picky eaters in the bunch so I wanted to see if they would notice. Everyone ate it up and then asked for seconds. When I saw one of my friends gobbling it up, I asked if he liked tofu. As he was about to take another bite, he told me that he’d never had tofu. His wife chimed in and let him know that the cheesecake was mostly tofu. When word got out, everyone was stunned which was a big compliment.
    The blueberries are a subtle flavor but sweet. You can add a ton of sugar into a dish but there’s nothing like biting into a naturally sweet berry. It’s a burst of natural sugar.
