Cashew "Cheese" Dip [UNTRIED]

Cashew "Cheese" Dip
Recipe By: Sarah Schatz
Serving Size: 4   
Preparation Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients:
1/2  cup  raw cashews
1 Tablespoon  lemon juice
1/4 cup  tahini
3 Tablespoons  water
3-4 Tablespoons  nutritional yeast
1 1/2 - 2 Tablespoons  olive oil
1/4 cup  chopped herbs such as cilantro or basil, optional

Steps:
In a food processor, first process the cashews to a fine grind.  Add
the rest of the ingredients and blend together.  Depending upon the
consistency you are looking for, you can add a little more oil or
water if you want it more like dressing, and less water or oil if
you want it more like soft cheese or dip.  Add fresh cilantro,
basil or parsley to add color and flavor if you wish.

You can simply eat this dip with vegetable sticks, make it a bit
thinner for a salad dressing, or even put it on tacos to substitute
for regular cheese.
