Instructions

Step 1

BLEND until smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides. I suggest beginning with 1/4 cup of milk initially so the cashews and garlic clove can be properly chopped up. I used a Ninja blender. A food processor, nutribullet etc. should all work just fine!

Step 2

Fresh herbs like cilantro or parsley (stems and all), hot sauce, non-irradiated turmeric for color and medicinal properties etc. (optional)

Step 3

Makes a delicious stand-alone dip,

Step 4

Step 5

Prep time is mostly waiting on soaked cashews and sweet potato. I had prepared sweet potato on hand and soaked cashews the day before.
