Servings:

Makes about 2 cups
Prep time: 4 hours
Blend time: 30 secs

 

Ingredients:

 

1 lb. raw cashews, soaked in water for 4 hours and drained

4 ounces of water

The juice of two lemons (approximately 4 ounces), separated

4 ounces of nutritional yeast

2 cloves of garlic

Salt to taste

Fresh chopped parsley to taste

 

Step 1:

Add the cashews, yeast, garlic, 2 ounces of water, and 2 ounces of lemon juice to a food processor.

 

Step 2:

Process until blended. Taste and season with salt and additional lemon juice. You can now add more garlic if you like, and add additional water and pulse to attain the consistency you like. The more liquid you add, the creamier it will be.

 

Step 3:

Pour the “cheese” into a bowl and fold in chopped parsley, and serve.
