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
- ¾ 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
- ½ 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.
