One of our favorite appetizers prior to going vegan was spinach con queso dip, so of course we had to veganize it. This dish takes about 15 minutes to whip up and is much healthier than the original!
To make the vegan version of our favorite dip, we use:
Vegan Cream Cheese (we use Tofutti)
Vegan Cheese (we use Daiya pepperjack and cheddar!)
Spinach
Diced Tomatoes (we use this kind!)
Jalapeño
Spices
Vegetable stock (this brand is organic!)
You won’t be able to get enough of this! Full recipe below!
