The Healtspan Solution
Ingredients
- 1 small butternut squash
- 1/2 cup raw cashews
- 1/2 cup nutritional yeast
- 3/4 cup unsweetened plant milk
- 2 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1 tbsp low-sodium tamari
- 1/2 - 3/4 tsp ground chipotle powder
Directions
- Preheat oven to 375. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone backing mat. Place the squash on it and roast it until the skin is brown and bubbling, 20 - 40 min.
- Once cool enough to handle, peel the squash, remove the seeds, and measure out 1 1/2 cups. Freeze rest for later.
- Pulse chashews and nooch in a blender until powdered, 10 to 20 seconds, stopping before they become a paste. Add in the squash, milk, lemon juice, and chipotle powder. Puree until smooth, about 60 seconds.
Note: you can use pre-chooped butternut squash, but cooking time will be decreased significantly, depending on the size of the cubes, so monitor closely.
