Vegan Coconut Yogurt

Serves 2
Ingredients
  • 1 16-ounce Mason jar (or any closed container)
  • 1 can original coconut milk
  • 5 probiotic pills
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries
  • drizzle of Vermont maple syrup (optional)
  • 1 handful of your favorite chopped nuts (optional)
Directions
In a 16-ounce Mason jar, combine coconut milk and a high quality probiotic by opening the capsules and pouring the probiotic powder directly into the coconut milk. Discard the capsule. Close the lid tightly and shake.
Store the Mason jar in a cool, dark corner on your kitchen counter (away from the stove) for three days, shaking periodically. After three days, the yogurt is ready to be served. Or, if you prefer thicker yogurt, you can refrigerate it for up to one week. Refrigerated, thickened yogurt should be stirred prior to serving.
When ready to serve, slice up the fresh strawberries and add to the yogurt with a drizzle of pure maple syrup and some chopped nuts. Or, get creative with your own combination of berries, nuts, and granola.
