Nacho "Cheese"

This makes about 2 cups.

2 c. water

1/4 c. raw cashews

One 4 oz. jar of pimentos, drained

1 c. nutritional yeast

2 T. cornstarch

1 T. fresh lemon juice

1 1/2 t. salt, or to taste

1/2 t. onion powder

1/4 t. garlic powder

1/2 t. cumin, heaping

Combine all ingredients and blend until completely smooth. Transfer mixture to a medium saucepan and whisk constantly over medium heat until thickened, about 5-6 minutes.

I added rinsed, canned black beans and taco seasoning to the "cheese" and poured this mixture over top tortilla chips and also added avocado and salsa. Basically, top with any of your fav nacho/mexican toppings and viola! This is a delicious, succulent recipe that hits the spot but won't sit with you or in you for that matter like normal baseball game nacho cheese.
