Description

This is a wonderful creamy dressing to serve as a dip with crudités, to add to salads, or as a yummy creamy dressing for chickpea nuggets, veggie burgers or veggie pancakes/fritters.

Makes about 1 cup

  • ✓ 1 cup of raw cashews (soaked overnight or 30 mins in hot water)
  • ✓ ½ cup unsweetened almond milk (and some extra to adjust creaminess)
  • ✓ 1 ½ tablespoon lemon juice
  • ✓ 1 tablespoon of nutritional yeast
  • ✓ 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • ✓ ½ teaspoon of garlic powder (or 1 clove of garlic)
  • ✓ ¼ teaspoon of onion powder

  • ✓ A pinch of salt and black pepper to taste
  • ✓ Herbs
  • ✓ 1 1/2 tablespoons fresh dill, finely chopped
  • ✓ 1 tbsp fresh chives, finely chopped (optional)
  1. Rinse the soaked cashews and transfer all ingredients, except the herbs, to a high-speed blender, and whiz until smooth and creamy. Add additional almond milk, as needed, until you reach the desired consistency
