Easy Awesome Almond Cheese

My husband, Mike, gave up dairy when he learned it raises the risk of prostate cancer, which runs aggressively in his family.  He missed cheese so much…until he found nut cheese.  There are loads of great nut cheese recipes all over the internet.  After trying many of them, he created this one because it was faster and easier than others, but just as good.  Other recipes call for taking the skins off the almonds or baking the nut cheese.  He thinks it’s just as good without that extra work.  

Citrus Grilled Salmon or Trout
