2 Tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder – secret ingredient – (Shhhh don’t tell anyone)
1 tsp ground cumin
3 gentle shakes of Chili Lime Seasoning Blend (Trader Joes)
1/2 tsp red chili pepper flakes (can always use more)
Serve chili over a bowl of brown rice or over a baked potato

1/3 c (juice 1 large lemon)
1 Tbsp unsweetened rice vinegar
1/4 tsp salt
Directions
- Add the cashews into a dry high power blender and process until it turns to powder.
- If using a standard blender, then soak the cashews for about 4 hours, drain and blend to a cream.
- Add almond milk, lemon juice and rice vinegar and process until smooth and creamy
- Add additional almond milk, if needed to achieve the consistency of “sour cream”
