    Vegan Cashew Sour Cream

    Spreads, Condiments, Sauces

    We’re bringing you a homemade Vegan Cashew Sour Cream to top these Loaded Vegan Summer Nachos with. You can also add this on to your taco Tuesday, or use it as a healthy dip for your veggies! You don’t need to be a vegan to enjoy this recipe. It is super nutritious while still providing that creamy touch.

    Cashews are super tasty and highly nutritious. They contain potassium, magnesium, and iron to keep you feeling your best. Iron carries oxygen throughout our body to all of our cells, muscles, and even our brain. Getting enough iron in your diet can help stave off that feeling of fatigue to keep you energized all day long. This recipe is a great way to get more plant-based foods into your  meals. By replacing the sour cream with this cashew-based version, you’ll be getting loads of heart-healthy fats into your meals.

    Let’s get started on our recipe! Once the cashews are soaked after about 2-3 hours, drain the water, and blend them with fresh water, apple cider vinegar, and lime juice. Add some salt, to taste, and place in the fridge, in an airtight container, for a few hours so it can firm up a bit. Enjoy with nachos, baked potatoes, vegetables, and more!

    Super simple, right? Interested in giving this a shot? Let us know how it comes out in the comments below!

        Hi! We don’t provide nutrition data on our recipes. It’s super time consuming to calculate accurately, and since we don’t have the time to do it well, we prefer not to post. Sorry!

        The nutrition information should be on the container of the cashews. 100g are approximately 600 calories. 1 cup is about 130g. The other contents are almost irrelevant to the calorie addition.

    Last month when I asked who you wanted us to inter Last month when I asked who you wanted us to interview for our habits series, 90% of you said Gretchen Rubin. Today your wish comes true. For those not familiar with @gretchenrubin, she is one of today’s most influential and thought-provoking observers of happiness and human nature, especially as it pertains to habits. Gretchen is the author of Better than Before, The 4 Tendencies and The Happiness Project and in this episode she shares the secret to creating health promoting habits that will work for you. ALSO: I want to also acknowledge that regardless of your tendency, forming new habits may be more challenging for people with ADHD or for neurodivergent folks, and these tendencies may not be one-size-fits-all.

    LIFE UPDATE: I purchased a home in the Hudson Vall LIFE UPDATE: I purchased a home in the Hudson Valley with 5 acres of land! (Even typing that makes me anxious lolol) All reno updates will be on @bohiohomes. I’ve been wanting a home close by to retreat into nature and considered a few locations but honestly, the racial tension and lack of diversity upstate gave me mixed feelings. I actually went to school in New Paltz (and love it SO MUCH) so I’m not sure why I didn’t consider buying here sooner. I took a trip this summer to go apple picking and was like wait, New Paltz is perfect! It’s welcoming, diverse (thanks to all the city kids and professors) and there’s so many fun things to do!! It’s also just 90 minutes away from the city. 

I’ve officially moved in and will be renovating this a-frame beauty built in the early 70’s. There is SO much work to do. The home has solid bones but needs major updates and I have to condition the land. We even have a cute pond! Very scary and very exciting. Eventually, I may open it up for retreats or for people who want to disconnect from the NYC chaos. For now, it’ll be home. Follow along for renovation updates on @bohiohomes 💕💕
    THIS ONE SIMPLE HABIT TIP CHANGED MY LIFE. What’ THIS ONE SIMPLE HABIT TIP CHANGED MY LIFE. What’s one thing you already do that you can build a habit around?! 

Ps have you been listening to our habits series
