Cashew Cheese 

Cashew Cheese Queso

It’s becoming widely known that dairy just isn’t healthy.  We all grew up on milk and dairy, and now we’re finding that it simply has too many hormones and other nasty stuff that we need to avoid.  Problem is, cheese is just so tasty and addictive that many people can’t give it up.

That’s where vegan nut cheeses come in!  Now you can have your cheese, queso, nachos, whatever you like, without the guilt or health consequences later!  Whether it’s cashew cheese, almond cheese, etc…they all, when made correctly, truly do give a cheesy taste and are gaining popularity every day.  You can make macaroni and cheese, nachos, tacos, whatever you’d like without worrying about the harmful effects of dairy.  Vegan cheese is light years tastier than some of the healthy food alternatives were just a few years ago.

Enjoy Your Queso

This is a super simple amazingly tasty recipe for cashew cheese queso that will honestly satisfy your cheese craving and let you feel totally indulgent while still being totally healthy, which is what we all want, right?  It’s basically like a vegan velveeta.  You could probably even make a tasty Rotel dip with it.

Trust me, you’ll thank me for this one.

Thanks to Thekitchn.com for the recipe.
