Easy Vegan Queso
Make this incredible vegan queso in 5 minutes flat, no cashew-soaking or even a stove top required! It's creamy and flavorful and just perfect for pouring (slow-mo-style) over all your nachos, tacos, and basically your entire life.?
Equipment
- 1 small food processor or blender
Ingredients
- 14 oz silken tofu
- 1/2 cup nutritional yeast
- 2 chipotle peppers from a can*
- 2 large cloves garlic
- 2 Tbsp lemon juice
- 2 tsp sea salt
- 1 tsp onion powder
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a blender or food processor and blend until smooth and creamy. If you're looking for a thinner queso texture, feel free to add some veg broth until it reaches your desired texture. For full flavor yumminess, make the broth with our vegan chicken bouillon powder**.
- We like to serve this cold, but if you like your queso warmed, you can do so on the stove. If you're warming it, I definitely suggest adding a little of the aforementioned broth first. Serve with chips as a dip or poured over tacos. Enjoy!
