Ingredients & Substitutions
I love using cashews because they create such a creamy texture. If you don’t have cashews, you can try using silken tofu, but the flavor won’t be as rich. Make sure to roast your jalapeños for that smoky kick – it makes a world of difference!
Tips & Notes
- •I like to keep some extra roasted jalapeños on hand for those who love a little extra heat!
- •If I want a creamier dip, I sometimes add a splash more almond almond milk before blending.
Recipe Variations
- •For a twist, try adding some chopped sun-dried tomatoes for a burst of flavor!
- •Sometimes, I’ll mix in some black beans for added protein and texture.
Storage & Freezing
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Just reheat in the oven or microwave when you're ready to enjoy it again!
