Is this your new favorite sauce, condiment, or dressing? That is for you to decide, but one thing we can assure you of is that this cilantro cream sauce is quick, easy, and incredibly flavorful. It goes with nearly everything from raw vegan tacos to zucchini noodles, but you can also use it as a dip for raw vegetables. If nobody is looking, you can even enjoy it solo by the spoonful. We don’t judge!

Raw cashews make up the base of this sauce, and they are the reason it is extra creamy. In order to create a creamier sauce, we recommend that you soak your cashews for at least an hour before blending them with the rest of the ingredients. Should you want to decrease the soaking time, you can soak the cashews in very hot water for about 10-20 minutes. Cashews are just the base, but the real flavor comes from the other ingredients, specifically the lime and cilantro, the two star players in this recipe.

This cilantro cream sauce calls for both the zest and juice of limes. Make sure that you zest the limes with a microplane before you juice them. Regarding zesting, make sure that you don’t grate too far into the peel. You don’t want a lot of the white pith underneath the green skin because that will create a more unpleasant flavor. Add the cilantro, including the stems, as well as the garlic powder, onion powder, and sea salt to the blender, blend until smooth, and enjoy. We hope you love this sauce as much as we do!

Forget the excess sodium, added sugars, and other preservatives in store bought dips and spreads. This creamy raw zucchini spread is the perfect way to enjoy rich, comforting flavor while nourishing the body with wholesome plant-based ingredients. Raw zucchini creates a smooth, velvety base that is both hydrating and low in calories, while raw cashews add a satisfying creaminess without the need for dairy, or even tahini. Bright lemon juice, garlic, and nutritional yeast bring depth and zest and subtle cheesiness to every bite, making this zucchini spread a delicious addition to your arsenal of dips and spreads.

Not only do the ingredients in this recipe offer impressive flavor, but they also have a long list of health benefits, according to research studies. Zucchini contains antioxidants such as lutein, zeaxanthin, and beta-carotene, which may help support cellular health and reduce oxidative stress. Its high water and fiber content may also support healthy digestion and satiety. Regarding cashews, research suggests that regularly consuming nuts (like cashews) may help support heart health and healthy cholesterol levels, due to their beneficial unsaturated fats and mineral content.

Garlic and lemon juice further enhance the wellness benefits of this addictive spread. Garlic has long been valued for its potential immune-supporting and anti-inflammatory properties, while lemon juice provides vitamin C and a refreshing citrus flavor that brightens the entire recipe. Nutritional yeast contributes a naturally cheesy flavor along with essential vitamins and minerals. In fact, it is a prominent dietary source of vitamin B12 for people following plant-based diets. Whether you are cleansing, resetting, or simply looking for a nourishing raw vegan recipe, this zucchini spread delivers both taste and nutrition in every bite.

It may come as a surprise to you, but this dressing does not contain tahini, despite the look and consistency. This creamy dressing is like an alternative to Caesar dressing, only it has a little more zest and spice. You can thank the fresh lemon juice, garlic, and mustard powder for that! The dressing is creamy because of the raw cashews, which also supply healthy fats, protein, and various vitamins and minerals. The protein, fiber, and healthy fats, specifically, help to keep you feeling full, which is integral while cleansing.

If you are like us, then you love eating salads, but too often do the dressings contain oils of some sort. We are not mad at olive oil or avocado oil, but it’s nice to take a break from traditional dressings now and again to diversify the flavor profile of your salads. The reason we chose raw cashews for this dressing is because cashews blend easily and create a creamier consistency than almonds or walnuts, for example. Because the dressing only calls for one-third cup of raw cashews, you don’t have to worry about consuming a ton of calories.

The great thing about this dressing, besides the zesty flavor, is its versatility. You can use it to dress your salads, enjoy it as a dip for raw veggies, or pour it over a Buddha bowl that contains quinoa, roasted veggies and more, provided you are not cleansing. No matter how you use it, one thing is for sure: this cashew dressing is rich in both nutrients and flavor. It elevates your salads and your health at the same time! We hope you love it as much as we do.

Allow us to introduce you to your new favorite pasta sauce. It is a hidden vegetable pasta sauce, which is a clever way to add more vegetables to a classic dish you know and love. Don’t worry, though, the flavor is exactly what you’d expect from a traditional marinara. This sauce contains zucchini, bell peppers, leeks, carrots, garlic, and onions, and you blend the vegetables into a smooth base, so they disappear into the sauce. Even though the sauce contains a generous mix of vegetables, the dominant flavor is from the tomato sauce and Italian herbs.

To build that familiar marinara flavor, you slowly cook the vegetables until they are soft and aromatic. The classic combination of garlic and onion creates the savory foundation, while carrots and bell peppers add a hint of natural sweetness, complementing the acidity of the canned tomato sauce. Zucchini and leeks add body and mild flavor without overpowering the sauce. Once everything is tender, blend the mixture until completely smooth. You want to create a sauce with a velvety texture, so you are not biting into big pieces of vegetables while enjoying your pasta.

What you are left with is remarkably like a traditional marinara sauce—rich, balanced, and tomato-forward. This is a great sauce to enjoy if you feel like you do not consume enough vegetables on a regular basis. It is also a great way to sneak more vegetables into your children’s meals. It’s the comforting character of a familiar pasta dish with an added nutritional flair.

First thing’s first: these are not pickles, despite their appearance. You can make the argument that they are, but we don’t classify them as such because the cucumbers do not pickle in a liquid. Additionally, you do not heat up the liquid to poor over the sliced cucumbers. Should you want to cut the cucumbers into spears, not rounds, you can do that as well. It’s a matter of preference because the flavor will be just as delicious no matter the shape.

These garlic dill cucumbers bring a refreshing, slightly tangy and herbaceous flavor to any potluck or simple weeknight dinner. Even though it is winter, this recipe will bring your taste buds into summer. It’s a timeless classic and you haven’t even tasted it yet! It balances the tangy, brininess of apple cider vinegar, fresh dill, and savory garlic. It’s also low in calories, low in carbohydrates, and a unique way to enjoy cucumbers. And believe us when we tell you that changing up the flavors of your veggies is paramount when you are trying to keep your taste buds interested while cleansing.

We recommend English cucumbers for this recipe because they have a thinner skin and minimal seeds, compared other cucumber varieties. If you have Persian cucumbers or hot house cucumbers, you can use them as well, but you may want to scoop out the seeds prior to marinating them in the liquid. You can also adjust the sweetness level to your liking, adding more or less maple syrup. Start small and go from there because you can always add more. Finally, you can serve this dish after a quick marinade, or you can marinate the cucumbers for four hours. The choice is yours, but it will be delicious no matter what.

Let’s talk about soup, ba-bay. Let’s talk about how delicious it-can-be. Soup is essentially comfort in a bowl, and the ingredients you include can either enhance comfort or make it slightly refreshing, for example, if you make a chilled gazpacho. Although zucchini is a type of summer squash, it is typically available year round. The great thing about zucchini is that it is low in calories and rich in nutrients, so you get a lot of bang for your bite!

Zucchini is naturally rich in vitamin A, manganese, potassium, folate, copper, magnesium, vitamin C, phosphorus, fiber, thiamine, and vitamin B6. It may also provide small amounts of several B vitamins, calcium, zinc, and iron. Interestingly enough, raw zucchini provides a similar nutritional profile as cooked zucchini, only with less vitamin A and more vitamin C. But zucchini is not the only standout ingredient in this soup. The following ingredients are equally as important:

• Fresh basil: This is an absolute must! Not only is basil aromatic and robust in flavor, but it also helps color this soup a beautiful green hue. You should not substitute it with dried basil!
• Onion and garlic: First of all, you should always add onion and garlic to most meals. They enhance the flavor of the soup, adding a sweet and savory essence to the soup. It’s possible for people to be allergic, so we understand if you cannot eat them, but we do not recommend omitting either of these ingredients, as they provide flavor and valuable phytonutrients.
• Lemon juice: Fresh is best, people! Adding the juice of half a lemon not only brings necessary acid to this soup, but also makes it a bit brighter and more refreshing. Just make sure to add it at the end of the cooking process to prevent it from cooking out.
• Broth: You cannot have this soup without broth, but make sure to get either low-sodium or unsalted vegetable broth. Regular vegetable broth can contain a lot of sodium per serving, so make sure you read the labels!

This kale, apple, and pomegranate salad with a raw vegan, creamy tahini dressing is exactly what happens when crunch decides to dress up for dinner. Take a large bunch of kale to form the sturdy, leafy base, and it is massaged just enough to be tender but still proud of its texture. Oh, you don’t know about giving your kale a lovely massage? While rinsing the kale, massage the leaves to help break down the fibrous textures. Diced apples bring crisp sweetness, while pomegranate seeds pop with jewel-like tartness. Finally, a generous scatter of thinly sliced green onions adds a savory bite and added crunch.

Every salad worth its salt requires an incredible dressing. You don’t want to just eat some kale, apples, pomegranates, and green onions on their own! This dressing deserves its own round of applause. Minced garlic pairs up with sea salt, fresh lemon juice, and apple cider vinegar to create a bright, tangy base that wakes up every piece of kale in the salad. This dressing wouldn’t be anything without the creamy tahini, which swoops in to create a luxurious base that is balanced by maple syrup’s mellow sweetness. Black pepper adds a subtle kick, while the water loosens everything into a pourable, drizzle-worthy consistency.

Once you toss everything together, you are ready to serve and enjoy immediately. Kale’s subtle bitterness pairs beautifully with the sweetly tart fruit and rich tahini dressing. It is filling, addictive, and charming enough to steal the spotlight next to any main dish. In short, it’s proof that eating your greens can be equal parts smart and satisfying.
