Prep time: 10 mins

Total time: 10 mins

Serves: about ¾ cup

This cream cheese is dairy-free and vegan. It tastes great spread on a bagel with lox and tomato!

Ingredients

1 cup raw cashews (here are some organic ones)
3 Tbs nutritional yeast (I use this one)
juice of 1 lemon
1 tsp raw apple cider vinegar (this is the one I like)
2 Tbs water
1 Tbs unflavored oil (I used an flavorless coconut oil, but flax oil or avocado oil would work well too)
2 scallions, thinly sliced

Instructions

Combine all ingredients, except scallions, in blender or food processor. (You will have to stop the machine and scrape down the sides several times, but be patient and it will come together!)
When the cream cheese is smooth, scrape it into a bowl and stir in the scallions.
Spread it on a grain-free toasted bagel with lox and tomatoes!
Enjoy!
