Raw Cheesey Dip

I got this recipe from my aunt Kara, who got it from her friend. I've tweaked it a bit, so I feel alright about posting it here.

Ingredients:
1 C raw, unsalted cashews
1/2 C nutritional yeast (not the same as brewers yeast. You might need to buy it at a health food store)
1 red, orange, or yellow pepper
juice from 1 lemon
1 Tbs. Spice Hunter (or similar) brand Mexican seasoning mix (or other spice blend of your choice)

Directions:
In a food processor (or really good blender), blend the cashews into a fine powder. Set aside. Blend the red pepper, then add back the cashew and mix. Mix in yeast, lemon juice and spice. Blend until well integrated. Serve as a dip for veggies, chips or crackers, or spread on tortillas as a sauce for a wrap.
