This cashew-based mock egg salad recipe tastes surprisingly like the real thing. This is quite a rich recipe, so you’ll want to ensure that you’re serving it with lots of nice fresh veggies, especially romaine lettuce. Yum!

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups cashews
• 3/4 cup water
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 3/4 teaspoon turmeric
• 1 1/2 cloves garlic
• 3/4 teaspoon sea salt
• 3 celery stalks – finely chopped (reserve!)
• 3/4 cup red bell pepper – finely chopped (reserve!)
• 3/4 teaspoon sea salt

Recipe Directions

1. Place everything (except celery and red pepper) into a high-speed blender. Blend very well until it resembles a smooth, creamy Hollondaise sauce
2. Pour yellow “egg salad” liquid mixture into a large bowl. Add finely chopped celery and red pepper.
3. Stir everything together with a spoon until celery and red pepper are nicely coated.
4. Enjoy immediately or store for up to 4 days in the fridge.

The Rawtarian’s Thoughts

This cashew-based mock egg salad recipe tastes surprisingly like the real thing.  It’s very rich and satisfying, and tastes best when balanced with light, fresh veggies, especially romaine lettuce.

If your blender isn’t powerful and has a difficult time blending harder items, consider soaking the cashews in warm water for an hour to soften them. Rinse and pat dry before using.

Another idea is to add some chopped mushroom to the red bell pepper and celery. The chewy texture of the mushrooms resembles the texture of egg whites.

What is a “raw vegan?” A raw vegan is someone who eats only raw fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds–none of which are ever heated above 105F (40.6 Celsius). That’s it. Raw vegan recipes include cookies, brownies, cakes, crackers, macaroni and cheese, cheesecake, and more. All made from fruit, vegetables, seeds, and nuts. No bread products, no dairy products, just raw, natural ingredients! There is a whole movement of “raw vegans” (or “raw fooders”) who invent and share creative raw food recipes. Raw vegans prepare recipes using blenders and food processors instead of ovens and microwaves! ”Like” The Rawtarian on Facebook, and visit her for more great recipe ideas at therawtarian.com
