In a blender or food processor, combine the drained cashews, lemon juice, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, salt, and 3 tbsp water. Blend until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed, adding the remaining 1 tbsp water if the mixture is too thick to blend. The ricotta should be thick and spreadable, similar in texture to whole-milk ricotta. Set aside.
