A vegan queso made from hummus! Just as cheesy and spicy as the original!

Ingredients

  • 1 10-oz. container plain hummus
  • 2 and 1/2 Tbsp. nutritional yeast
  • 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
  • 2 Tbsp. minced pickled jalapeños + 2 tsp. jalapeño brine
  • 1/2 cup salsa, plus more for topping
  • 2-4 tsp. lemon juice
  • scant 1 tsp. turmeric
  • water to thin (up to 1/2 cup)
  • salt + pepper
  • 1-2 green onion, for topping

Instructions

  1. Combine hummus, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, jalapeños, brine, salsa, 2 tsp. lemon juice, turmeric, and 1/4 cup water in a small sauce pan. Mix to combine, heating over medium-low heat. Season with salt and pepper. If it’s too thick, add additional water (I used about 1/2 cup total).
  2. Taste, and adjust seasoning as necessary, adding salt and pepper to taste. Taste will vary based on salsa chosen (I used a mild homemade cooked salsa). Serve warm with chips or veggies on the side and green onions and additional salsa on top.*

Notes

*I found that the dip tasted even better on day 2. It reheats just fine, so you can totally make this dip the day before you’ll be eating it, and then just warm it up right before you dig in.
