Delicious & Creamy!
This recipe was so easy to make and didn't require me to use the tamper at all. I love how the flavor of the roasted garlic comes through. I want to spread this on everything!

Math?
Dear Vitamix I read your responce that the servinge size is 1 cup at 100 cal/cup and that the number of servings is 8. That seems impossible given the amount of ingredients listed in the recipie. This recipie cannot possibly produce 8 cups.

Sounds delicious!
I’m looking forward to trying this because it sounds delicious! Maybe I misunderstood the serving and kcal info but it looks like a serving is 1 cup and 100kcal which I find odd because 1/4 cup of cashews is about 170 kcal. Thanks!

Fairly Good
Recipe was easy to make. I enjoy the roasted garlic and the creamy texture. It seems pretty mild to me. I would have liked more garlic. I plan to try to freeze the recipe for future use in soups, etc.
