Spinach Dip Stuffed Mini Peppers


Raw Spinach Dip:
1/4 cup prepared raw macadamia tofu
juice of 1/2 lemon
1/2 teaspoon sea salt, or to taste
2 cups spinach finely chopped in food processor
4 green onions, minced
1/4 cup chopped water chestnuts or jicima
1/4 cup carrot, minced (optional)
1-2 garlic clove, minced
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
cracker black pepper


Mix tofu and lemon juice by hand. Add remaining ingredients and mix well. Check seasoning.


Stuffed Peppers:
mini peppers or small bell peppers, halved
1 recipe raw spinach dip


Gently spoon dip into pepper halves or use as a "chip" to dip into bowl.


You could use raw cashew butter or other nut butter in place of the tofu, but the consistancy and flavor would be greatly affected.
