I can't find the link to the blog I got this recipe from - but thanks to some blog in cyberspace I have a new yummy dip to serve at parties, gatherings and just for fun. My son claims it is his "favorite" and loves to dip tortilla chips in it. It is amazing!
Makes approximately 7 ½ – ½ cup servings
Ingredients:
½ cup raw cashews, soaked and drained
½ cup oatmeal, ground into flour
1 ½ cups water
2 teaspoon onion flakes, dried
½ teaspoon turmeric powder
1 clove garlic, peeled
14 ounces diced tomatoes or about two cups salsa if you like heat (Pace, Mild is great)
1 teaspoon paprika
1 crushed red peppers to taste (optional)
½ teaspoon chili powder
1 dash cayenne
1 teaspoon real sea salt
Directions:
Combine the cashews, oatmeal, water, onion flakes, turmeric, and garlic in your blender. Puree until the mixture is smooth. Pour the mixture into a heavy bottom saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring often to keep it from sticking. Add the canned diced tomatoes with their liquid (or salsa if using), paprika hot crushed peppers, chili powder and cayenne and stir to combine. Taste the mixture and add salt and pepper, as you desire. Cook the mixture (continuing to stir) until it is hot and the texture you want. You can add more liquid if it gets too thick.

Comments:
This dip is thick and rich and tastes much more decadent than it actually is. We like to eat it with corn chips, but more often it shows up on a baked potato stuffed with broccoli.
Each serving of the queso dip contains 600IU of vitamin A, and 70mg of phosphorus.
