Raw Spicy Secret Sauce

One of the challenges for me, while on a raw food diet, is the lack of mayonnaise. I know…gross! (I still have few  unhealthy food vices  that I  reach for.)  I needed something creamy to add to my tacos, salads & wraps. The Spicy Secret Sauce has been the perfect solution. Here is my version of it.

Spicy Secret Sauce by Susan Gouveia

• 1/3 cup of raw cashews, soaked for 8-12 hours & drained.
• 1 medium tomato
• 1/2 mild red  pepper, chopped
• 1 Serrano, Cayenne or Jalapeno pepper (adjust to your level of spiciness)
• 2 Tbsp of chopped onion
• 2 Tbsp of lemon juice
• 1 Tbsp of liquid aminos
• 1 Tbsp of flax seed to thicken
• water or vegetable juice may be needed to get right consistency.

Blend all ingredients  in a food processor until creamy. Adjust spices. Have fun with this and let me know how you incorporate into your raw menu.
