Horseradish Cashew Cheese Spread

A zingy cashew cheese spread, perfectly creamy and salty. Slather it on your reuben sandwiches or toss macaroni in it for a quick mac and cheese with a kick.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup cashews soaked
  • 1/4 cup nutritional yeast
  • 3 tsp horseradish
  • 1 Tbs lemon juice
  • a dash of turmeric
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 -1/2 cup water depending on consistency

Instructions

  • Soak cashews overnight, or in hot water for an hour.
  • Drain cashews, place in blender with nutritional yeast, horseradish, lemon juice, turmeric, garlic powder, salt and pepper, and 1/4 cup of water.
  • Blend until smoothly, adding rest of water in slowly if needed. You may not need the full 1/2 cup depending on consistency. It should be thick-ish like a spread, and not too runny.
  • Taste and add more horseradish if there isn’t enough of a kick for your spice level.
  • To serve, spread onto toast or use in sandwich creations!
