Steps:

• Drain any excess water from the tofu.
• Blend tofu and lime juice in a processor or blender until creamy and smooth.
• Add the rest of the ingredients (except crust!), and blend again until smooth.
• At this point, I had to transfer the mixture to a bowl and beat on high speed with an electric mixer, since it was too thick and stiff for my blender.
