AAA Cashew Cream (the As stand for amazing, all purpose, and awe-yeah)

My friend Toby and I have this joke and it goes something like this:

Him: "E, this is amazing! What's in it?"
Me: "Cashew cream."

It's not so much of a joke as a true story. Cashew cream can be savory (lasagna!) or sweet (peach cobbler!) and is a nutritious, delicious substitute for cheesy, creamy anything.

Ingredients:
1 c raw cashews, powdered (they must be raw and unsalted - look in bulk bins at the health food store)
1 c filtered water

Powder cashews using a spice grinder, coffee grinder, or magic bullet is best for this, but a blender will work in a pinch but it's best to then soak the nuts for 4 or 6 hours beforehand to make sure you get a very creamy (not gritty) result. 

Blend the powdered cashews with water until creamy and Voila! you have cashew cream. You can add savory spices (salt, pepper, basil, rosemary) for things like stuffed shells, or you can add agave and lemon zest for sweet things like blueberry pie.
