Vegan French Onion Dip

• 3 tablespoons oil, preferably grapeseed or canola
• 4 medium yellow onions, finely sliced (4 cups)
• Pinch salt
• 3 large cloves of garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon celery salt
• 1 tablespoon vegan Worcestershire sauce
• 3 sprigs fresh thyme
• 1 cup raw cashews, soaked overnight
• 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
• 1 cup unsweetened Coconut yogurt (soy substitute works but be sure it's unsweetened)
• 1 cup vegan mayo
• ground pepper
• 1 teaspoon sea salt

1. In a large saute pan over low heat, add the oil and onions along with a big pinch of salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until onions caramelize into a deep brown color. This may take up to 30 minutes or more. Add a splash of white wine or water occasionally to incorporate the tasty brown bits on the bottom of the pan. When the onions are nearly done, add the garlic and spices and allow to cook for a few moments longer. Stir in the Worcestershire sauce and thyme leaves. Remove from heat and let cool.
2. Drain and rinse the soaked cashews. Add them along with the vinegar to a blender and blend for a couple minutes. Once cashews have broken down - they should resemble chunky peanut butter at this state - add the yogurt and mayo to the blender. Blend until smooth. If mixture is too thick a touch of almond or soy milk will help get the ingredients moving. Add the cooled onion mix to blender. Pulse on low until incorporated. Add salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Serve surrounded by chips and sliced raw veggies.
3. The dip tastes even better the next day.
