Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
  • 2 cups raw cashews, soaked overnight or "power soaked" in boiled water for at least 3 hours
  • 1 cup cashew milk or unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 garlic clove chopped
  • 2 teaspoons lemon zest
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • ⅛ teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
  • ¼ cup finely diced yellow onion
  • 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
  • 1 tablespoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
  1. Add soaked cashews, nut milk, garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, onion, nutritional yeast, salt and oregano to a high powered blender on full speed for about 3 minutes until completely smooth and steaming. (If your blender is not a high speed blender, most are, blend the ingredients until smooth and simmer over medium low heat for about 10 minutes)
  2. Serve sauce warm with my favorite gluten-free pasta topped with chicken and parsley.
