Cilantro Cashew Dressing

Inspired by Sweetgreen's Spicy Cashew Dressing, this Cilantro Cashew dressing is vegan, creamy, and ultra flavorful.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Cashews, soaked in boiling water
  • 1 cup Cilantro Leaves
  • 3/4 cup Filtered Water
  • 1 Lime, juice from
  • 2 tbsp Nutritional Yeast
  • 3 Garlic Cloves
  • 2 tbsp Rice Vinegar
  • 2 tbsp Maple Syrup or Agave
  • 1.5 tsp Sea Salt
  • 2 tbsp Tamari
  • 1/2 tsp Red Pepper Flakes optional

Instructions

  • Add your cashews to a bowl and top with boiling water. Let sit for about 20 minutes.
  • While your cashews are boiling, assemble your ingredients and add to a high speed blender.
  • Drain the cashews and add to the blender. Blend for about a minute or until the dressing is fully combined and creamy.
  • This dressing can last in the fridge in an airtight container for up to two weeks. I personally like to store it in a squeeze bottle for easy access.
