Easy Vegan Chili Cheese Dip


Description

A creamy, velvety cheese-like dip made with cashews, black beans, and corn, perfect for game nights or potlucks.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed (15 oz can)
  • 1 can kidney beans, drained and rinsed (15 oz can)
  • 1 can corn, drained (15 oz can)
  • 1 cup diced tomatoes (canned or fresh)
  • 1 cup cashews, soaked for at least 2 hours
  • 1/4 cup nutritional yeast
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh cilantro for garnish (optional)
  • Tortilla chips for serving

Instructions

  1. In a blender, combine the soaked cashews, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the drained and rinsed black beans, kidney beans, corn, and diced tomatoes.
  3. Fold the blended cashew mixture into the bean mixture until well combined.
  4. Transfer the dip to a serving dish and garnish with fresh cilantro if desired.
  5. Serve immediately with tortilla chips.

Notes

For a chunkier dip, reserve 1/2 cup of the beans to fold in whole after blending. For a warm version, bake the assembled dip at 350°F (175°C) for 10–12 minutes.
