Turkey Free Dairy Free Guacamole with Cashew Lime Crema
Creamy, bright, and loaded with fresh flavor, this guacamole is the kind of dip that disappears before you even sit down. Ripe avocados get mashed with lime juice, jalapeño, red onion, garlic, cilantro, and Roma tomato for a chunky, vibrant base that hits every note. The real showstopper is the cashew lime crema — raw cashews soaked and blended until silky smooth, then drizzled right over the top for a rich, tangy finish that feels genuinely indulgent. It's completely plant-based, so there's no dairy hiding anywhere, and every ingredient is exactly what it looks like. This is the kind of recipe that works just as well for a casual weeknight snack as it does for a party spread where you need something that impresses without the stress. Serve it with tortilla chips and extra lime wedges, and don't be surprised when people ask you for the recipe before the bowl is empty.

Instructions
- 1
Place the cashews in a small bowl and cover with boiling water. Soak for 30 minutes, then drain and rinse thoroughly.
- 2
Transfer the drained cashews to a blender or food processor. Add the 3 tbsp lime juice, 3 tbsp water, and 1/4 tsp salt. Blend on high until completely smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes, scraping down the sides as needed. The crema should be pourable but thick enough to coat a spoon. Add water 1 tsp at a time if needed to reach that consistency. Set aside.
