Want to reap the benefits of a whole food plant-based diet...but missing old favorites? Good news: you don't have to miss out! And the proof's in the queso (that's the saying, right?). This whole food and vegan take on queso is made from mostly cashews. That's right — dairy-free, oil-free, sugar-free, and somehow just as creamy and delicious. Seriously! See for yourself!
