Where is the cheese ??
This is a vegan/ plant based recipe. there is no cheese. it is an alternative cheese sauce for those who choose not to eat dairy
This is an excellent alternative to a cheese
dip. Made a couple of times for our vegan friends. We make fancy nachos! It tastes yummy cold as well.
We have made this recipe multiple times and really enjoy it! Sometimes we will add 1/2 cup of chunky salsa to it to make it like nacho cheese for tex-mex dishes.
Delicious! So good, super easy!!
Yummy i cant have cheese and this is an awesome alternative!
Does anyone know if you can use sweet potatoes instead?
I am allergic to Nutritional Yeast- it causes me migraines—what can i use instead?
Wtf, no cheese? Gross
On which setting could this be done in the ace blender??
It was a good first attempt at vegan nacho sauce but it tastes more like soup than nacho. I would reccomend tripling the salt and adding ground black pepper, parika, thyme and a bit of parsely to jazz it up a bit.
Pretty good, but adding some acidity like lemon juice and apple cider vinegar to the blender really helps achieve more of a cheesy flavor. And I like to blend in miso instead of salt when I have it. I’ve tried a few numerations of this recipe before but was looking for an instant pot version- thanks for the tips!
How can you have a “cheesy”sauce with no “cheese”?
