Ingredients

For Cheese

  • 1 yellow onion , roughly chopped
  • 1 red bell pepper , roughly chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic , minced
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 6 ounces Mori-Nu Silken Tofu
  • salt/pepper
  • 1 cup nutritional yeast

For Nachos

  • 3 whole wheat tortillas
  • 1 Tablespoon coconut oil , melted
  • salt
  • nacho toppings: tomatoes , salsa, olives, green onions, etc

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees for the chips.
  • Start by making the nacho cheese sauce. Add oil to a saute pan and heat over medium-high heat. Once oil is heated, add in your chopped onion and red pepper. Season with salt and pepper. Saute vegetables for about 7 minutes, stirring frequently.
  • Once vegetables have softened, stir in garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Transfer your sauteed mixture to a blender. To the blender, also add in the nutritional yeast and tofu. Blend until smooth.
  • Cut tortillas into wedges with a pizza cutter and place on a baking sheet. Brush with coconut oil and lightly salt. Bake for about 10 minutes or until lightly toasted and beginning to crisp.
  • Once tortillas are baked, arrange on a plate and top with cheese sauce and toppings.
