Creamy basil dip


Yesterday one of my beautiful friends came over and she is also real food loving chick. We have lots of basil growing in our garden so I made some of this basil dip to put on our sandwiches. It is seriously yummy and makes any sandwhich delicious:) And its green, I love bright green things. The key is to make it taste just how you like it. Not tangy enough? Add more apple cider vinegar. More sweetness? Add some more honey. Too sweet? Add some more salt.

1/2-1 cup of Cashews or Macadamia nuts
3tbls extra virgin olive oil
2tbls raw apple cider vinegar or lemon juice
1 tsp raw honey
1 garlic clove
Himalaya salt, black pepper, chili powder
Handful of basil leaves

Mix everything in the blender with a tiny bit of water until a smooth paste. If too runny add more nuts and if to thick add a bit more water.
