The creamy topping cools off spicy meals and adds a delicious balance to the finished dish. This is a great little alternative to using sour cream which contains a lot of saturated fat, but doesn’t compromise the classic rich texture.

Reviews
Simple and vegan!!
First attempt was a little wonky. Grainy cashew texture and not a very white-ish color when blending was done.
Tasted pretty darn good though.
Going to try this again to see if the texture and color improves.
