Ingredients
  • 1 12 ounce package firm or extra firm silken tofu (Mori-Nu)
  • ½ cup raw cashews* (can be halved to reduce calories)
  • 1 tablespoon Bragg’s Liquid Aminos or low-sodium soy sauce
  • ½ to 1 lemon, juiced
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar (or vinegar of choice)
  • 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (omit to make oil-free)
  • 1 small clove garlic
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon sugar (or sweetener of choice)
  • black pepper to taste
Instructions
  1. Add all ingredients to a high-speed blender. Blend for about 1 minutes, until there are no flecks of cashews, and the mixture is emulsified.
Recipe Notes

* If you aren’t using a high-speed blender such as a Vitamix or even a NutriBullet, then you should soak your cashews in cool water for a few hours before blending. You can also do a “quick soak” by simmering the cashews in hot water for about 10 minutes
