Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups Raw Cashews
  • .5 lemon
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • .25 cups extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons tahini, or more

Instructions

  1. If you don't mind a little carb, or are including legumes in your Paleo, you can swap .5 cup garbanzo beans (soaked then cooked) for the equivalent amount of cashew.
  2. Soak the cashews at least 10 hours and up to overnight. Drain well.
  3. Dump everything into the bowl of your food processor, add salt and pepper to taste, and flip the switch. Let it run for 2-5 minutes, scraping down the sides halfway through. The longer it goes the creamier it gets.
