Garlic Cashew Cream
Homemade sauces are powerful! They seem simple, but they really are such a key to creating delicious vegetable based meals with ease throughout the week. I always recommend people to keep at least one homemade sauce (my go-to is normally a pesto) in the fridge to add to their lunches and dinners throughout the week.
Why? Because it makes your food taste good. Simple as that. Tastier food = more satisfied = crave less junk.
I’ve got a few favourite sauces from hemp seed pesto to beetroot hummus to creamy hemp and coriander dressing.
