Vegan Queso






     Who would of ever thought you could make Queso out of vegetables...whelp someone did, and I am putting my own twist on a fun new idea.  Follow along and prepare to be amazed.  Each of the 10 half cup servings are only 123 calories, 13.4g carbs, 5.8g fiber, 7.6g net carbs, 10.6g protein and 3.2g fat.  Never could you have that much protein with so little fat using dairy in your Queso.  Put this on your to-do list pronto, use it for dipping or dressing a salad, or just eat it from the bowl...it's just that good.  :)

Ingredients for 10 servings~
1 head trimmed Cauliflower, cut into florets
3 large peeled and sliced Carrots
1/2 cup Simple Truth Cashews
1 cup Simple Truth Nutritional Yeast
1 can Kroger Mild Diced Tomatoes with Green Chilis, or Rotel 
1 Tablespoon Chili Powder
1 Tablespoon chopped Garlic
Dash Salt, to taste

     Add Cauliflower, Carrots and Cashews to pot, cover with water, simmer 45 minutes, drain and add to food processor, blend til well incorporated.  Add Yeast, the liquid from Rotel, Chili Powder, Garlic and Salt, continue to blend til thoroughly mixed to desired consistency.  Stir in the Tomato mixture from remaining Rotel.  Enjoy  :)
