Ingredients
- 1 large White Onion finely diced
- 1 clove Garlic
- 1 cup Cashews
- ½ cup Plant Milk unsweetened
- 1 tbsp Lemon Juice
- 1 tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar
- ½ tsp Onion Powder
- ¼ tsp Salt
- ¼ tsp Pepper
- Chives or Parsley for Garnish
Instructions
- Finely dice your onion and heat your pan over low-medium heat.
- Sauté your diced onions in a touch of olive oil or veggie broth if you are oil free. Cook for 10-15 minutes stirring every few minutes until the onions become slightly golden and caramelized. Low and slow is best here!
- In the last minute of cooking ass in your crushed garlic and toast for one minute, stirring continuously so the garlic does not burn!
- Meanwhile, add the rest of your ingredients into a high speed blender and blend until completely smooth.
- If you do not have a high speed blender it is best to soak the cashews in boiling water for 15 minutes to soften them. Otherwise there will be lumps in your dip!
- Once the onions have caramelized let them cool then mix then into your creamy cashew mixture.
- Top with some fresh chives or chopped parsley, dip and enjoy!
