If you have never tried the spicy cashew butter dressing at Trader Joe’s, I encourage you to run, not walk to go get some! It is such an easy way to add an element of flavor to any meal. I am not usually a fan of really spicy food, but I really enjoy this dressing. It’s in the refrigerator section and is seed oil free!
This recipe is easy to put together and brings together a combination of both frozen and fresh ingredients. It can be easily adapted as well.
