Vegan Tahini cheese Dip | Vegan cheese dip | Cashew dip |Healthy dip recipe | Instant Dip

 
Cheese dips are not always unhealthy is what I would love to tell here by presenting you this recipe. It is completely vegan, sugar free and so guilt free. 

Cashew is the magic ingredient here that gives this dip it's creamy texture and nutritional yeast gives it that cheesy flavour and texture. 


Nutritional yeast is a activated yeast usually comes in the form of granules and flakes.It is a great source of vitamins and minerals and good for weight loss too. If you don't have access to it then feel free to substitute with vegan parmesan cheese.


Tahini is one ingredient that's packed with amazing nutrition and flavours from sesame seeds. A must have in every pantry and can be used in so many dishes. Here it gives a nice flavour and increases the nutritional value of this dip.


You can make this dip ahead of time, store in refrigerator and serve them in parties along with tortilla chips. Just soak the cashews before and then it's just a matter of 5 mins to make this.

I have linked all my healthy swaps for the regular products with brands. So it will be easy for you to buy them and make it. Lets check out the recipe.

Eggless Brazilian Cheese Bread

Pao de Queijo (pronounced as pown -deh- kay-zho) aka Brazilian Cheese Bread is a small baked cheese bun, a popular snack and breakfast food that originated in the state Minas Gerais of Brazil. These are bread/buns usually made with tapioca flour, milk, oil, cheese, salt, and egg/egg substitute. Since I don't use eggs in my baking I have used vinegar instead. These are soft, chewy and so addictive. I love to make healthy bakes from all around the world. Inspired by this YouTube video by Something Dave and I gave it a try as it was an eggless version.These came out so well. These are super simple and easy to make with just five ingredients. A must try because they are gluten-free, contain no yeast, no baking powder, yet so soft and cheesy😋 I had never tried baking with tapioca flour...and found it so interesting to bake with. The dough is too sticky and you will need some extra flour to be dusted to make balls out of it. I have used plant-based pa...

Huli pudi (Sambar Powder) North Karnataka style

There is a wide variety of sambar powders not only within Karnataka but within South India. Each region has it's own way of adding ingredients and making them. In North Karnataka brahmin families, you can usually see two types of Sambars, firstly 'Saaru ' which can also be called Rasam with Toor dal. The consistency is thin and usually made with Tur dal and tomatoes or Tamarind. The other one is 'Huli' which is thicker in consistency and usually includes some veggies or greens. So here I am sharing the Sambar powder that is used to make a typical Huli. This is so unique and different from South Karnataka Sambar powders. The main difference being the omission of urad dal and Tur dal. This powder is just made with dried spices. This can be made in advance in large quantities/batches and stored in a...
