Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 cup soaked cashews
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp nutritional yeast

Method
 

  1. Soak your cashews in boiling water for at least 5 minutes, but I recommend soaking them for 30 minutes to an hour to soften them and make them creamier.
  2. In a blender or food processor, blend all ingredients until smooth and no solid pieces remain.
  3. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Enjoy fresh and keep it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
