On Friday February 20th, my new grandson Mason was born! He was 8 lbs. and 21 inches long. Yes, a big boy, for my little daughter. My daughter’s husband is 6 ft 2 in, so that may have something to do with it. It’s been a trying ten days, but all seems to be going well now. Mason and mommy are doing much better! Their new little family is adjusting quite well.
With little Mason’s baby shower coming up, I wanted a new dip to serve. This dip is not only delicious, but also extremely healthy! It also reminds me of a ranch dip.
Avocado Raw Cashew Dip (Paleo/ Dairy Free/ Vegan/ Gluten Free)
1 c. raw cashews
1 ripe avocado (pit and skin removed)
1/4 c. water
2 Tbsp. onion
2 tsp. dill
1 Tbsp. maple syrup (optional)
1/2-1 tsp. sea salt (to taste)
Soak cashews for at least 8 hours. Drain and rinse. Place all ingredients into the food processor and pulse until pureed. Will keep in the fridge for up to one week.
Serve with your favorite crackers or raw veggies.

I’ve been fearful of trying the cashew dips, but you made it sound so simple! On my to-do list now.
They are not hard at all to make!
