Ingredients

  • 1 12.7 oz package of lite firm silken tofu
  • ½ cup raw cashews
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon yellow mustard
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder

Instructions

  • To remove the raw bean taste, place tofu in a small pot of boiling water and blanch for 3 minutes.
  • Drain and add to a high speed blender.
  • Add the remaining ingredients and blend on high until the mayonnaise is smooth.
  • Store in a pint sized jar in the refrigerator for up to a week.

Notes

If you don't have a high powered blender like a Vitamix or Blendtec, be sure to soak the cashews for at least four hours, and then drain them, before blending them with the remaining ingredients.
