Preparation

Step 1

Soak the cashew in the water overnight or at least 2 hours.

Drain off any left over water that was not absorbed by the cashews. Add the drained cashews, avocado, lemon juice, Italian seasonings and garlic into a blender.

Blend until smooth, stop and scrape down the sides and repeat until the mixture is smooth.
