Geez Whiz Cheez Spread and Dip
2 cups “raw” cashews, finely ground
1/2 cup chopped sweet red bell pepper
1/2 cup quick cook oats
1/3 cup nutritional yeast
2 tbsp tapioca starch
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 cup water
1 tsp sea salt
Place all ingredients in your food processor or blender, and whiz until smooth. Transfer to a saucepan and bring to a simmer over low heat, whisking constantly, until very thick. Transfer to a clean jar and allow to cool, then cap and keep in your fridge. This makes delicious grilled “cheez”, is great as a dip for veggies, spread on burgers or other sandwiches, and you can thin this out further with more water to serve hot as a cheez sauce or fondue.
