I’m sure this is out on the web somewhere – but i couldn’t find it so I made my own! I desperately wanted nachos over this holiday..I mean, DESPERATELY. Problem 1: cheesy like substance that is not horribly bad for you and is still Vegan! I came as close as you can me thinks 🙂 Tell me what you think!

Ingredients:

• Note: this makes about a cup of cheese – multiply for large parties.
• 1 1/2 cup soy milk (unsweetened)
• 1 1/2 cup Daiya shredded cheddar cheese
• 1-2 T of nutritional yeast
• 1 7 ounce can of tomato/green chiles (found in the ethnic food isle)
• 1/8 t Paprika
• 1/8 t Cayanne pepper
•  1/8 t Kosher salt
• 1/8 t Fresh black pepper (i used a couple of twists of freshly ground)

Directions: 

• In a small sauce pan on medium heat, put the soy milk in the pot and start stirring.
• When milk is starting to get warm, add half the amount of cheese and stir continuously until cheese is integrated (I like to use a whisk).
• Once this cheese is integrated – add the remainder of cheese.
• Once desired consistency is reached (I like it coating my spoon in a thickish layer), add in salt, pepper, cayenne pepper, nutritional yeast and paprika.
• Add to top of nachos
• Add vegan sour cream, salsa, and my guacamole-mole-mole 🙂

ENJOY!
