Best with tortilla chips, or make nacho supreme with tortilla chips, beans,lettuce, tomato, scallions, olives and nacho "cheese" mmmmm

This sauce also makes good grilled "cheese" sandwiches when it's cooled. Just spread on bread and grill.

bumping this recipe since I've heard good things about it and I had some trouble finding it. I'm going to try it this week and post a review later :)

It is a freakin awesome recipe just had "cheese" and tomato sandwiches for lunch with it. I wonder if it can be made into a slicable cheese if agar flakes are added to it?

oops, new i forgot to post my review! I tried it and am in love with it. I lived off nachoes and "cheese" for a week when I first made it. Well I have some leftover in the fridge too. Haven't tried making sandwiches wiht it tho. hmm.

I like to make spicy mac-n-cheese w/ leftover sauce and boca crumbles. I also like to use taco sauce instead of salsa, it makes it taste more like that nacho cheese they have at the gas station.

I made a mexican lasagna with this as the cheese sauce tonight and it was yummy.

I'm currently making a Three Layer Mexican Pie from fatfreevegan.com..

But I am replacing the middle "cheeze" layer with this recipe.
I will post the results when I taste it later!

I wonder if this would be as good without the earth balance.
I want to cut-out oils & added fats from my diet (as much as possible).
