The best vegan queso recipe ever, it tastes so much like the real thing. Made with potatoes, cashews, and nutritional yeast, this magical combination does not taste dairy-free, paleo, or vegan. But it is!

Ingredients
  • 1 cup boiled potato about 2 medium yellow or red potatoes, see note for strict paleo diets
  • 4 garlic cloves peeled
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 3/4 cup raw cashews soaked overnight if not using a high-speed blender like a Vitamix
  • 1 cup vegetable or chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 cup coconut milk unsweetened, full fat
  • 1 4-ounce can chopped mild chiles
  • 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
  • 1 4-ounce can chopped pickled jalapeños divided and drained (reserve juice)
  • 1 tablespoon pickled jalapeno juice
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1-2 teaspoons salt
  • fresh cilantro chopped, if desired for garnish
  • Equipment Needed
  • high speed blender
Instructions
Combine everything except for 1/4 cup chopped pickled jalapeños in a high-speed blender like a Vitamix. Start with 1 teaspoon salt. Blend until very smooth.
If blender does not heat mixture, transfer to saucepan and put on the stove over medium-low heat. Add 1/4 cup chopped pickled jalapeños. Heat until desired consistency, stirring constantly so as not to burn the bottom. Taste and add extra salt if desired.
Recipe Notes
If on a strict paleo diet or if you must avoid nightshade, swap the 1 cup white potato for 1 cup mashed, steamed cauliflower.
Keep leftover in an airtight container in the fridge about 5 days. When reheating, add unsweetened almond milk, if desired, to thin to desired consistency.
