Step 1

You can soak your cashews in water for about 1 hour or overnight in the refrigerator if using a standard blender. You don't need to soak your cashews if you are using a high-speed blender.

Step 2

Place cashews in the blender, add water, lemon juice, tahini, nutritional yeast flakes, garlic, and salt. Process until creamy. Add dressing to salad and toss to coat.

Step 3

Place spring salad mix in a large bowl, top with tomatoes, avocado, cucumber, beet, artichoke heart, red onion, olive, fresh herbs (I added cilantro and basil), and edible flowers of your choice, (I added marigolds and nasturtium).
