Cashew Queso

1 Cup of raw cashews

1/8 cup of chopped white/yellow onion

1/4 tsp. garlic powder

1 Tsp apple cider vinegar

3T nutritional yeast (try to find one without folic acid and synthetic vitamins if possible)

1/2 tsp. taco seasoning

1 tsp lemon juice

Sprinkle of salt and pepper

Dash of paprika for color

A little bit of dijon mustard

  1. Pour boiling water over cashews and onion. Let sit at least 20min and then strain.

  2. In a blender or food processor, add the strained onion/cashew, and remaining ingredients except salt and blend. Add water a little bit at a time until smooth. Scrape down sides or use the tamper thing if needed. Add salt to taste.

  3. Enjoy! Store in the refrigerator for 3-5 days (tip: things in the back of the refrigerator will last longer because it is colder back there than the door)


This delicious recipe was created by my sister, Ally! It is very easy to throw together and customize. Great on tacos, tortilla chips as nachos, buddha bowls, roasted cauliflower, you name it!
