Vegan Nachos with HOMEMADE Nacho Cheese Sauce - Gluten free, Oil Free - EASY Vegan

Vegan Nachos is the ULTIMATE party food and is our official movie night go to. Some nights we can’t be bothered with all that dinner fuss, so we set up a movie, make some nachos and other delicious finger food treats and stuff our faces..GUILT FREE! There are no crazy ingredients in this recipe, no added oil, and it’s completely gluten free! The homemade nacho cheese is DEFINITELY a showstopper, you can’t even tell it’s vegan!
------------------------------------
Ingredients:
For the cheese sauce:
1/4 cup nutritional yeast
1.5 cup almond milk (or any other non dairy milk)
1 tbsp miso paste
3.5 tbsp corn starch
1/4 tsp turmeric
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp salt
1 tsp dijon mustard

For the nachos:
Corn tortillas
Nacho toppings of your choice (I used chopped tomatoes, scallions, jalapeno, banana peppers, and cilantro)

Instructions:
(Note- if you’re using store bought tortilla chips, skip to step 3 - I’m using store bought corn tortillas and making chips out of those)

1. If you’re making your chips from fresh tortillas, then start by preheating your oven to 350ª. Then start cutting up the tortillas into triangles and transfer to a baking sheet, sprinkle with salt generously
2. Bake for 19-21 minutes until crispy. Set aside
3. Combine your miso paste with a little bit of water or milk to create a slurry, set aside
4. In a medium saucepan with the heat turned OFF, add the milk, nutritional yeast, corn starch, turmeric, onion powder, salt, and dijon mustard - whisk until full incorporated and there no lumps
5. Turn the heat to medium heat and continuously whisk the cheese until it begins to boil - let it boil for 3-4 minutes (while continuously whisking).
6. Once you have reached your desired consistency, turn the heat off and add in the miso slurry - whisk to combine (if you like a more thin cheese, then add 1 tsp of water to thin out the cheese and do not boil for too long. If you like your cheese a little bit thicker, then boil for an additional 1-2 minutes, while whisking)
7. Assemble your nacho plate/platter starting with a layer of chips, add some of the cheese, another layer of chips, more cheese, and then add your toppings (I used tomatoes, scallions, jalapeños, banana peppers, and cilantro), top with some more cheese and lime wedges
8. Serve and eat immediately :)
