Vegan Cashew Fiesta Dip
We make this dish for Placemat meals all the time and it’s always a hit with the guests! This is pretty similar to all the “vegan queso” recipes you see out there – but I don’t like calling it queso. It doesn’t look, smell, or taste like cheese, so there is no point in trying to tell you it’s just like cheese. It isn’t!
But it’s DELICIOUS regardless – even if you are not vegan or dairy free!
