Vegan Cashew Queso

This amazing dairy-free Vegan Cashew Queso recipe is nacho mama's unhealthy restaurant dip. Made with raw cashews, nooch and other plant-based pantry staples, this veg-ified Tex-Mex staple will satisfy any cheesy craving.

Today I'm sharing the BEST chipotle vegan queso dip I've had. I have tried countless plant-based queso recipes in the past, and not one of them has even come close to this easy recipe. If you think I'm being biased, I'm not; I tested this cheese sauce out on my non-vegan sister and she scarfed it down faster than I could make us a marg!

• 2 cups raw cashews boiling water for 10 minutes
• 1 cup water (more if needed)
• ½ cup nutritional yeast
• 1 chipotle chile in adobo sauce
• ½ teaspoon tumeric (optional but adds the nice yellow color)
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 Tablespoon fresh lime juice can sub lemon juice
• 1 10oz can of tomatoes with chile peppers drained, but save liquid

• 3 Tablespoons chopped cilantro (optional)
