Cashew Sour Cream

A staple in our kitchen, this cashew sour cream is fantastic, particularly with these Portobello Steak Fajitas.Soak 1 cup of cashews in enough water to cover them for 8 hours or overnight. (See recipe for shortcuts.)Drain and rinse cashews. Add to Vitamix blender with remaining ingredients and blend until completely smooth. Refrigerate. Use to top anything or everything but this is particularly tasty on these Portobello Steak Fajitas.
