    Vegan Cheese Dip with Roasted Red Pepper

    Jump to Recipe - Print Recipe

    Move over Velveeta we've gotta healthier version of your cheese dip; just in time for Super Bowl. This Vegan Cheese Dip with Roasted Red Pepper is so addicting, you might need to double the recipe if you're having company. 

    Vegan Cheese Dip with Roasted Red Bell Pepper is my new favorite appetizer. Not only is it inexpensive and easy to make, but it also tastes like real cheese. No saturated animal fats or fake ingredients. Its smokey roasted flavors make it unique and delicious. Only a few healthy ingredients and a quick blend in the Vitamix and voila...you're all set. Wow your friends at your next Superbowl party!

    This vegan cheese dip is not only good as a dip it can also be used as cheese in lasagna or as a creamy sauce for macarooni and cheese. The recipe calls for only a few ingredients. At my house, this is a staple sauce we keep in the refrigerator but I like play around with the spices and flavors to mix things up a bit. 

    What You'll Need For This Vegan Cheese Dip

    Recipe Variations

    What I love about this recipe is that you can do so many things with it. Try adding chile peppers, chipotle, or fresh herbs like thyme and cilantro. You can thin it out with more lemon and water or thicken it up with less water. When it's cold it works better as a dip, when it's room temp it works better as a mac and cheese. Put it in tacos, on veggie bowls or even over chips for an awesome nacho cheese. Have you tried my to-die-for Loaded Vegan Nacho recipe?

    Vegan Cheese Dip with Roasted Red Peppers

    Move over Velveeta we've got competition and this version is plant-based and healthy. Think creamy, smoky, and cheesy. Use it as a dip or as rich vegan mac and cheese.

    What a fun collaboration with @veggiesdontbite a few weeks ago. We teamed up (in person) to create a bloody Maria recipe. It’s truly our own unique fun take on the traditional Bloody Mary. I’m not a huge fan of hard alcohol but I can do some tequila. And one cool thing about this recipe is you don’t need any alcohol. It’s THAT GOOD! And you really won’t miss it. Thanks for a fun day @veggiesdontbite link in my bio for full recipe on the blog right now.

    A healthy diet is so key to many aspects of our lives. Diet plays a huge role in disease gene deregulation, it requires less time at the gym with a trainer (more energy, less extra weight, & better recovery), diet helps with brain fog making us feel more clear headed, stronger teeth and better smelling breath is a great side effect, your skin care routine will thank you as well (more hydrated, less blemishes)! 
Because you feel so energetic, clear headed and strong, you end up with more confidence, self love and therefor self respect. This snowballs into less self sabotage and more self control! 
There are so many reasons why putting the time and energy into cleaning up your diet PAYS OFF!

    I want to introduce you to a term I coined this ye
    I want to introduce you to a term I coined this year. I was trying so hard for so long to describe a way of cooking that is from the soul, tapping into a skill we all have deep down but often don’t recognize or trust in: Intuitive Cooking. Not intuitive eating, but intuitive cooking! It's a type of cooking that comes from within! Not looking outside yourself but looking within; knowing and trusting yourself. Using flavors, ingredients, fruits/vegetables, and spices you love, and then applying all the cooking knowledge you have from your years of eating breakfast lunch, and dinner. Having fun in the kitchen. Seeing cooking as an art. 
So often we give our power away to recipes or people called experts. You know - those chefs or bloggers that seem “better at cooking” than you are. 
So often we assume others must know more than we do. And this diminishes our own trust in our abilities.  But I’m gonna tell you a secret: you are a creator in the kitchen with artistic abilities you have yet to discover or acknowledge. Trust yourself; and you’ve taken your first step towards better health and taking your power back. 
This right here is what I call the fridge dump dinner. I took whatever I had leftover in the fridge and made a nutritious meal from it. Read more on my blog: link to blog article in my bio.
