Preparation

Step 1

In a food processor, add the cashews and oil and process until smooth. Now throw in the garlic, (Vegan) parmesan (see description), and fresh lemon juice and process more. Add in the basil and spinach and process until smooth.

This will make enough for about two crusts worth of Pizza if desired.
