Ingredients
- 1 cup Sundried tomatoes (packed in oil)
- 0.5 cup Raw cashews
- 1 clove Fresh garlic
- 2 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
- 1 tablespoon Nutritional yeast
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.25 teaspoon Sea salt
- 3 tablespoons Water
- 0.125 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Place the raw cashews in a small bowl and cover them with hot water. Let them soak for 10 minutes to soften.
Step 2
Drain and rinse the cashews, then add them to a food processor or high-speed blender.
Step 3
Add the sundried tomatoes (including a small amount of the oil they are packed in), garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, nutritional yeast, dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper to the food processor.
Step 4
Pulse the ingredients several times to break them down into a coarse texture.
Step 5
Add the water one tablespoon at a time, blending after each addition until the mixture becomes smooth and spreadable. You may need to scrape down the sides of the food processor to ensure everything is evenly combined.
Step 6
Taste the spread and adjust seasoning if needed, adding more salt, pepper, or lemon juice to suit your preferences.
Step 7
Transfer the spread to a serving bowl or an airtight container. Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 5 days.
