Basil & Cashew Dip
This is a great little recipe for having on dry biscuits, or dipping celery or carrot sticks etc. into. Great as an afternoon snack, or for serving at lunch/dinner parties for your friends.
INGREDIENTS:
2 bunches fresh basil
2/3 cup unsalted cashews
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
2/3 cup olive oil
juice of 1/2 a lemon
Approx. ½ – 1 tsp unrefined sea salt or good quality, natural salt e.g. Himalayan Crystal salt
Optional (Mark loves this) – Organic coconut cream
PREPARATION
Place all ingredients into a blender (a good quality one that can handle nuts) and mix.
Add a couple more nuts if your mixture is too liquidy, or add some more olive oil if it’s too dry.
Use more or less coconut cream, salt or lemon juice to taste.
