Vegan Chive Sour Cream
 
 
The base of this cashew chive sour cream has infinite uses! I love it on baked potatoes, with Mexican food and to make any number of dips! If you're short on time, and haven't soaked the cashews, they can be simmered in water on the stove for a few minutes then left to soak for a couple of hours.
