Raw Food Friday #3 Green Onion Dip

This is an amazing dip for any veggie!  While it may not be a low-fat meal because of the nuts it is extremely healthy!  The recipe does not specify but raw nuts should be used for the dip.  YUM!

Raw and Dairy-free Green Onion Dip

from Diana Stobo
Ingredients

1 1/4 cup Water
1/4 cup Lemon juice
1 1/4 cup cashews, un-soaked
1/3 cup macadamia nuts, un-soaked
2 teaspoons onion powder
1 1/2 teaspoon Himalayan Sea Salt (or regular sea salt)
6 scallions, chopped

Directions
Place Water, lemon juice, cashews, macadamia nuts, onion powder and salt in a high-speed blender and process until creamy. Add scallions, and blend on a low setting to incorporate but not break down completely, (10 seconds). Cover and let sit in refrigerator to chill and fuse flavors for about two hours.
Serve chilled with flax crackers or beautifully sliced vegetables.


I have not made this recipe yet but I'll have plenty of time at lunch plus a massage this afternoon.  YES!  Looking forward to an amazing weekend.
