Healthy Queso Dip (Dairy-free, Soy-free)
makes about 2 1/2 cups
- 1 cup raw cashews*, soaked for up to 4 hours and drained
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- juice of half a lemon (about 1 1/2 tablespoons)
- 3 tablespoons nutritional yeast
- 1/8 teaspoon turmeric
- 14 oz. can diced tomatoes with green chiles
*Raw cashews have a very mild and neutral flavor that works well in this recipe. Try to avoid using roasted cashews, which have a stronger cashew flavor.
Directions:
In a high-speed blender, or food processor, combine the first six ingredients, plus the liquid from the can of diced tomatoes and green chilies. (I was able to get about 1/4 cup of liquid from the can.)
