Raw Cashew Red Pepper Spread

This spread, featured at the bottom of this photo, was by far the hit of the Lifehouse Community Celebration.  Here's a great way to eat healthy at parties and potlucks.  I also like to use it as a spread on rainforest or light rye crackers as a snack.  Cashews contain protein and healthy fats.

Ingredients:
(Use organic ingredients where possible)

·         2 cups whole raw cashews
·         1 cup chopped red bell pepper
·         ½ cup chopped celery
·         ¼ cup fresh lemon juice
·         2 cloves of garlic
·         1 tsp sea salt

Method:
​
1.    In a food processor, add all ingredients and processor until smooth.
2.    Stop the processor periodically to scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula.
3.    Serve immediately or store in a covered glass container in the refrigerator.  This keeps up to four         days in the fridge.
