Green Lemonade

When you tell your friends about your new feel-good, look-good, diet-lifestyle, it creates some pretty confused faces. That is until you introduce them to a few of the delicious, fresh foods you are eating. Take this 3 Ingredient Cashew Cream, for instance, added to a “cereal” of fresh blueberries with almond milk, your relationship becomes whole again. (Especially when your friends find out not only how good this “cereal” tastes but also the benefits of eating this type of clean food.)

I hope you enjoy this nutty, and slightly sweet cashew cream as much as I do.

3 Ingredient Cashew Cream

Makes ~1/4 cup; Serving Size: 1/2 tablespoon, ~100-125 calories per serving

Directions

Place the cashews, maple syrup and 1 tablespoon of water into a blender or food processor. Let the ingredients combine for a good 30 seconds. You may need to scrape down the sides of the blender or food processor (depending on what you are using) occasionally. Add an additional tablespoon of water to facilitate blending if need be. The cashew cream is done when you scoop it all together and it looks like a nutty paste.
