Bean Dip #WFPBdairyfree

I hurt my back and needed surgery a little over 2 weeks ago. Its feeling pretty good now but I need to have PT for a few weeks before I can go back to work.  

You know its getting better when I can get in the kitchen and make up new recipes!

BEAN DIP RECIPE

1 Can Great Northern Beans including the aquafaba.

1 Cup of raw cashews.

1 Garlic clove.

2 tsp Apple Cider Vinegar.

1TBSP Lemon juice

1/2 Cup Nutritional Yeast.

(Optional)

Salt, Cayenne pepper, Tabasco sauce, Smoked Paprika ( I used them all but the salt.  Spicy!!).

Boil the raw cashews for 20 minutes. Rinse in cold water. This softens them, reduces the tannins, but the fat and fiber remain.

Add them together with the rest of the ingredients to your blender of or food processor. Blend until completely smooth. I had to use a spatula 4 times to scrape down the walls of the blender.

Serve with chips, crackers or veggies of your choice.
