Servings: 6
Calories: 115kcal
Ingredients
- 15 oz can of white beans such as Great Northern Beans
- ¼ cup salsa of choosing*
- ¾ cup unsweetened non-dairy milk
- 1 clove minced garlic
- ½ cup nutritional yeast
- 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon ground flaxseed
- ½ teaspoon cumin
- ½ teaspoon chili powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt add more to taste
- ¼ teaspoon turmeric
- dash of cayenne pepper for more heat adjust to taste
Instructions
- In a high speed blender, add all your queso ingredients. Blend for 4-6 minutes (yes actually blend that long) on med-high speed. The mixture will thicken more as you blend longer. Taste and add more salt if desired. For the best flavor, warm the queso stovetop or in the microwave.
- Serve in a bowl with tortilla chips. Feel free to top with chopped jalopeños, tomatoes, or cilantro for garnish. Enjoy! This dip is BEST the day of, but can always be reheated stovetop for a few minutes the next day.
Notes
⭐️ Choose any type of salsa you like - mild, medium, or hot! I don't recommend choosing a salsa that is heavy on beans/corn. Choose one that is mainly tomato based.
