Ingredients

• 1/2 C raw cashews
• 1/3 C non-dairy milk
• 1 TBS maple syrup
• Juice from one lemon
• Juice from one orange
• 1/2 tsp. salt
• 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp. onion powder

Preparation

1. If you don't have a high-speed blender (such as a Vita-mix), soak cashews in water for 2-3 hours and then drain the water.
2. Put the cashews in a blender with all ingredients except poppy seeds.
3. Blend until smooth, about 1 -2 minutes.
4. Pour the dressing into a container and stir in the poppy seeds.
5. Chill in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours before use. May stir in 1-2 TBS of nondairy milk if the dressing seems too thick when ready to use.
6. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
