Benefits of Cashew Sour Cream
Cashews not only offer a great source of energy, they also support bone and brain health. And fortunately, they grind up into a creamy buttery consistency. Apple cider vinegar aids digestion and supports overall health. It also lends some of that tasty sour flavor. Lemon is a refreshing source of Vitamin C and phytochemicals calledlimonoids, which have been shown to help fight cancers of the mouth, skin, lung, breast, stomach and colon.Here’s the recipe!
Cashew Sour Cream
Ingredients:
1 cup cashews, soaked overnight in filtered water 2 tsp. apple cider vinegar 1 Tbsp. lemon juice 1/4 cup water 1/4 tsp saltInstructions:
Place all ingredients in a blender (a bullet blender works well) and blend until smooth and creamy, about 30 seconds. Cover and refrigerate. Should last up to 5 days. Note: If you’d like to thin out the sour cream to a dressing, add more water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until you reach the desired consistency.Get the printable recipehere.
