Tangy Tomato-Herb Nut Cheese.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups raw dry cashews
1T nutritional yeast
juice of 1/2 a lemon
1 tsp sea salt
1 1/2 tsp mixed herbs (preferably dry – but fresh is always great and best)
1/2 tsp crushed black pepper
1/4 to 1/2 cup chopped heirloom tomatoes (I used baby heirlooms)
slight drizzle of agave (stevia or raw honey would do just fine too)
1 cup of purified water
Preparation:
Combine all ingredients except agave and water into a food processor. Blend until well combine. Continue processing and add the agave, then slowly add the water, mixing until smooth and creamy. Consistency should be like a thick, smooth cheese sauce. Add more or less water as needed.
