I love using cashews in the hot for food kitchen! They’re so versatile and create the creamiest of textures. In fact, cashews are so creamy and can take on any flavor that one who isn’t vegan would be surprised that they’re eating nuts. I used to make vegan tzatziki with soy yogurt, and feel free to sub in 1 cup to the recipe below, but in the end cashews are the healthier choice. They’re chock full of heart healthy monounsaturated fats and are high in copper and magnesium. So go nuts for cashews and don’t be afraid of the fat!
For other recipes using cashew cream as the base check out the creamy caesar dressing, vegan mac & cheeze, and ranch dip.
Just discovered your blog, thanks to a Google search for tzatziki sauce. Fabulous! And with all good ingredients, not like some recipes that use soygurt. Can’t wait for falafel lunch tomorrow.
I was sad that Isa no longer does recipes now that she has a restaurant, but then I find equally fantastic recipes from blogs like yours! Thanks so much! Can’t believe you even have cranberry bliss bars!
