2 Medjool dates

1 stick celery

1/4 cup sauerkraut

2 green onions

Directions:

  1. Soak the cashews for a few hours (or overnight) to soften them up and make them easy to digest.

  3. Drain and rinse the cashews. Then blend the cashews along with the other dressing ingredients in a high speed blender until smooth.

  4. Pour dressing over salad, mix everything together and squeeze with lime.
