Servings: 8
- 1 cup almonds
- 3/4 cup water
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 2 Tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1/3 cup fresh basil
- 1 clove garlic
- 3 Tablespoons nutritional yeast
- 1 Tablespoon Bragg's liquid aminos
Add all ingredients to a high powered blender or food processor and process/blend until smooth.
Note that almonds are a hard nut so it takes a around 1-2 minutes of blending for the mixture to thin out and become the consistency of a dip/sauce.
For a thinner sauce, just add more water, 1 Tablespoon at a time until the consistency is how you like it.
