Servings 8
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups raw cashews soaked overnight
- 1 tbsp. nutritional yeast
- ½ tsp. sea salt
- 2 tsp. avocado oil
- 1 tsp. granulated garlic
- ½ tsp. parsley
- ½ tsp. oregano
- ¾ cup coconut milk
Instructions
- Make the cashew cream by adding all the ingredients to a blender. Blend on high for 2-3 minutes or until you have a nice creamy consistency. You may have to scrape the sides of the blender to mix thoroughly
Notes
Note: if your cashews soak for a very long amount of time, you might notice a color change in them. This is normal, however I do not suggest letting them soak for more than the suggested time.
You can also make this up to 3 days ahead of time and store it in the fridge if you need it!
