How do you write about one of the greatest gifts you’ve given to the world? The answer is: you don’t. Instead, you let other people do it for you. Below are some of our favorite stories staring the recipe that began it all. Originally from Life is NOYOKE, it’s Cashew Queso: Great hot or cold, lasts for days, adored by picky eaters young and old. It's the return of cheese. It's an irresistible appetizer to bring to a party. It's a base for soup (Broccoli u0022Cheeseu0022), a sauce for tacos, a dip for chips or veggies. This dairy-free cheese sauce may be the best Vitamix recipe ever. It's mine, it's ours, it's here for the world to discover and enjoy. -Lenny Gale
