This classic cashew sour cream sauce is a personal staple in my kitchen. In case you’re new to the whole “cashew cheese” thing, it’s simple. It’s blended raw cashews with a mix of seasonings and spices and a touch of lemon juice made to resemble a creamy sour cream sauce, minus the dairy. This Easy Vegan Cashew Sour Cream sauce takes less than 5 minutes to make and taste amazing on pretty much anything!
Easy Vegan Cashew Sour Cream Sauce
I like to make large batches and freeze them in small amounts. That way it last longer and I always have some stocked away in my freezer for when I need it on a whim, which happens more often than you think.
My favorites to add this cashew sour cream sauce is on my Black Bean Vegetable Chili, Chili Stuffed Sweet Potatoes, Taco Lettuce Wraps, and even Vegetable Broccoli and Cheese Soup. It adds the perfect amount of cream to any meal.
