1 min read

In a deep bowl, add washed leafy greens of your choice.

Add 2 cups cooked pasta..


2 cups cooked, drained black lentils.


Onion, salt and vinegar.


In a powerful blender, add 1 cup cashews, two cups water….


1/2 tsp sweet paprika, 1/2 (tsp) curry, 3 tbsp nutritional yeast (optional), 2 tbsp cornstarch, 1 tsp salt, and blend until you have a smooth paste.


Transfer the paste to a deep pan and bring it to a boil (stir constantly so it doesn't stick)


Once it has the texture shown above, it's ready.


Add the mixture over the salad like a dressing, mix well, taste, and add any salt, vinegar or herbs it needs!


Don't tell anyone it has no oil! They won't believe it!
