A plant-based cleanse approved dip that Meghan Markle loves.

Spicy Cashew Dip

This is a simple dip with tons of flavor that takes not time to make! Dr. Alejandro Junger, Clean Program's Founder loves making using this recipe on salads or with crudites. It's also a favorite of Clean Program's frequenter, the stunning Meghan Markle. 

Cashew dip that is vegan, plant-based and delicious is a Clean Program favorite.

The Many Health Benefits of Cashews

Cashews are low in sugar and rich in fiber, heart-healthy fats, and plant protein. They're also a good source of copper, magnesium, and manganese — nutrients important for energy production, brain health, immunity, and bone health. As you know, when doing Clean 21 or Clean 7, we tout introducing nuts like Cashews over peanuts since they offer less inflammation to the gut and are not highly refined like peanuts.

How to Make Spicy Cashew Dip 

Ingredients:

1/2 cup of raw cashews

Juice 1 lime ( if you can't juice a lime, we invite you to substitute with organic lime  juice, which you can easily find at any grocery store.)

Juice 1 small lemon (if you can't juice a lemon, feel free to purchase organic cold pressed lemon juice on your next trip to the grocery store.)

1 to 2 handfuls of fresh cilantro leaves (Dr. Alejandro Junger likes more cilantro flavor, so he uses two handfuls from the farmer market or garden. But add to taste. If you are not a fan of cilantro, you can replace with Arugula or Basil.)

1 garlic clove

About 1/2 cup of water

About 1/2 of a fresh jalapeño (quick tip, keep the seeds in the pepper for a little extra spice!)

Delicious vegan spicy cashew dip

Process:

In a blender, puree all the ingredients for exactly 15 seconds to the mixture stays a little chunky. 

Why We Love this Dip

Not only is this dip cleanse approved and part of Dr. Junger's Clean Gut Program, we love it because it satisfies the need for a delicious snack and go-to Clean hack for when you're craving something that delivers flavor, punch and that satiating feeling.
