Recipe Introduction


This came from Vegetarian Times and it's absolutely wonderful as a salad dressing, veggie dip, pasta sauce, or my favorite -- focaccia dipping sauce. Also yummy in a veggie sandwich. You can change it by using whatever fresh herb (or combinations of herbs) you like.






List of Ingredients



• 1/2 cup soft silken tofu (4 oz.)
  
• 1/2 cup tightly packed fresh basil
  
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
  
• 2 tablespoons water
  
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
  






Instructions



1. Combine all ingredients in food processor.
   
2. Process 2 minutes, scraping down sides once or twice.
   
3. Ready to use right away, but keeps well in fridge for up to 4 days.
   
4. After refrigerating you may want to thin it down with a little water.
