  1. Can you substitute Cashew Butter instead of Almond Butter?

  2. How do you prevent this from hardening in the fridge? I’ve made a few different variations of this, and it always becomes less dressing/more almond butter consistency after being refrigerated (so I have to add more water & mix any time I want to use again!)

    • Take it out of the fridge an hour or two before you plan to use it. It’s fine even if you leave it out for a day. 

  3. Yum

  4. Outstanding! I can’t wait to make this, maybe even tonight!

    Happy 2018!
