Cashew Spread
 
 
I think I might be getting the hang of these nut cheeses. I thought I'd try my hand at making a cashew cheese spread and I love it! It's perfect as a sandwich condiment, a cracker topper, or lathered on an apple slice. You can play with the flavors, but I like an herb-y kind of spread and I think you'll like this one, too!
