If you have a high speed blender; blend ingredients (minus the red pepper) until smooth.
If you have a food processor; pulse broccoli until fine, add spinach a handful at a time and pulse until fine. Next the cashews, a handful at a time and pulse until very fine. Keep pushing the food from the sides down into the bowl to get everything as fine as possible. Add ½ of the water, olive oil and sea salt. Process until smooth, and then add the remaining water and pulse to mix.
Pour into 2 bowls for a main meal or 4 for an appetizer.
Sprinkle a generous handful of the minced red pepper into each bowl.
Serve with a green salad of choice.
