Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup raw cashews (soaked*)
  • 2/3 cup water
  • 1 chipotle in adobo sauce
  • 1 Tbsp. fresh lime juice
  • 1 Tbsp. apple cider vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp. onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp. smoked paprika
  • 1/4 tsp. salt

Instructions

  1. 1

    Place all ingredients in a small high-speed blender. (I use a small NutriBullet which works great.) Blend for 20-30 seconds until smooth.

  2. 2

    Taste and adjust flavors if needed. (Add more water for a thinner sauce, more salt, vinegar or lime juice for acidity, or more chipotle or adobo sauce for spicier.)
