Directions

  1. Place cashews in a bowl and cover with 1/2 of the hot water. Soak for 5 minutes. Drain.

  2. Combine drained cashews, remaining 1 1/4 cup hot water, nutritional yeast, salsa, garlic, ancho chile powder, Dijon mustard, cumin, and salt in a high-powered blender (such as Vitamix®). Start blending at lowest speed and slowly increase the speed. Blend for 2 minutes. Add more hot water if you want the queso to have a pourable consistency.

Recipe Note

A cashew-based queso dip that has tons of flavor and would fool even the pickiest of queso aficionados! This recipe is best made in a high powered blender (I have a Vitamix®). I cannot say what it would be like in something different! Enjoy with tortilla chips or homemade salsa.
