Strawberries and Cashew Cream

by

My cashew cream is dairy-free, gluten-free, soy-free, and refined sugar-free. If you tolerate cashews, they’re a great source of magnesium and copper.

Dairy-Free Ranch Dip

Whether you like to skinny dip or chunky dunk, this one is always a hit in my kitchen. We dip anything from vegetables to mini-meatballs. My son likes to use it as a creamy side sauce with his home-made hash browns. This dip is dairy-free, gluten-free, soy-free, & refined sugar-free.
