This is an appetizer I made for Mother's Day this year. I used as a base, the cashew cream recipe from Color Me Vegan, and then added some extra garlic and nutritional yeast to give it a bit more cheezy artichoke dip flavor. prep. time includes the time it takes to soak the raw cashews overnight.

Time 12h10m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup raw cashews
1 tablespoon olive oil, plus additional oil for brushing
1/2 yellow onion, finely chopped
1 teaspoon miso (white or yellow)
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon water

salt and pepper, to taste
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can artichokes, chopped

Steps:

  • Soak the cashews overnight in just enough water to completely cover them. The next day, drain and rinse the cashews, then set aside.
  • In a medium sauté pan, sauté the onions in the 1 tablespoon of oil until translucent and tender, about 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Place the soaked cashews, sautéed onions, miso, lemon juice, minced garlic and water into a blender and process until smooth.
  • Mix in the chopped artichokes, and nutritional yeast, salt and pepper, to taste.
  • In the meantime, preheat broilier to high.
  • Brush the baguette slices with a light layer of olive oil and broil for 2-4 minutes, watching closely to not burn.
  • Top each toasted slice with 1 tbsp of the cheezy artichoke spread then sprinkle with chives.

The bread was perfectly toasted and the cheese was melted and gooey. I could have eaten a dozen of these!
