How to Prepare Cream Cheese Filled Tomatoes [Vegan]

  1. Blend Cashews with filtered water until very smooth, place in an open-mouthed 1/2 gallon glass jar. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and secure with a rubber band. Cover with a towel and allow to sit in a warm place overnight.
  2. The next day dehydrate the “cheese” at 105 degrees for 6-8 hours until it begins to firm. Since it was so hot outside, we just placed the jar in the sunshine and it worked very nicely. You will have a nice thick, cream cheese-like spread.
  3. Take small juicy ripe tomatoes, core the inside and prepare a shallow bed for the cream cheese. Take a spatula or spoon and fill the center of the tomato with the homemade cashew cream cheese. Top with salt, pepper and an optional nut and spice blend. Place green onions on the side and/or on top.
  4. Wallah! Appetizers that are sure to please not only the eye, but the palette as well.

Notes
