Ingredients

  • 1 qt low-sodium vegetable broth
  • 1 (20 oz) can organic young jackfruit in water
  • 1/2 c raw cashews (soaked in water for 4 hours and then drained)
  • 1/3 c unsweetened almond milk
  • Juice from 1/2 of a lemon
  • 1 garlic clove, sliced
  • 1/2 tsp. sea salt
  • 1 large celery stalk, finely chopped
  • 1 green onion, finely chopped

  • 2/3 c dried tart cherries (without sulfur or preservatives)
  • 1 tbsp. fresh thyme, stems removed and minced
  • sea salt and black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Place the broth in a medium saucepan over high heat and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low.
  2. Drain and rinse the jackfruit and add it to the saucepan. Cover and simmer for one hour. Remove from the heat, strain the broth, and shred the jackfruit. Set aside.
  3. Add the cashews, almond milk, lemon juice, garlic, and sea salt to a food processor and blend until smooth.
  4. Place the shredded jackfruit in a bowl with the cashew cream (add slowly because you may not need it all), celery, green onion, grapes, cherries, thyme, and sea salt and pepper. Mix until everything is combined and then place in the refrigerator to chill for 30 minutes.
  5. You can place it in a sandwich with tomatoes, spinach, and avocados, or you can top it on a salad.
  6. Store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days.
