    Ingredients











    Garnish



    Directions

    In a small saucepan, heat evaporated milk over medium/high heat. Stir in cornstarch and whisk to combine.

    Bring contents to a simmer but do not boil (when it begins to bubble, it’s ready), reduce heat to low immediately.

    Immediately stir in cheese in batches, starting with the white American cheese. As you stir in the cheese, increase heat to medium/low. Be sure to CONSTANTLY whisk ingredients until cheese melts completely. Once melted, add more. Do not stop stirring, you must continue to whisk the entire time while adding cheese.

    Once the cheese in done, add in shredded mozzarella, being sure to constantly whisk while cheese melts. If you prefer your dip to be thicker, add more mozzarella cheese.

    Once all cheese is melted, stir in jalapeños, chili powder, nutmeg, red pepper flakes, salt and pepper.

    If you would like queso to be browned, pour into a small nonstick skillet and place in oven. Broil for 3/4 minutes or until cheese begins to bubble and brown.

    Garnish with cilantro, tomatoes, jalapeños if desired.

    Cut Sonora Tortillas into triangle chips and bake on a nonstick sheet at 350 degrees until golden and crispy. Serve with queso.

    Toppings (optional)




    Directions

    Press and drain tofu in a clean kitchen towel with a heavy pot on top while preheating oven to 350 degrees F.

    Bake your Sonora Tortillas into chips; lightly brush or spray both sides of tortillas with olive or avocado oil, dust with sea salt. Stack and cut into triangles and arrange in a single layer on a large baking sheet. Bake until 10-12 minutes, flipping half way through, until crisp and lightly golden brown. Set aside.

    Heat a large skillet over medium heat and prep onion and garlic.

    Once hot, add 1 Tbsp olive oil and onion. Cook, stirring frequently, until soft and slightly browned; approximately 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1-2 more minutes.

    Add tomato sauce, diced chipotle and adobo sauce and veggie stock. Heat until bubble. Reduce heat to low and let simmer for 5 minutes.

    Transfer sauce to a blender. Blend to desired consistency and texture. Set aside.

    Use a fork to crumble tofu and place skillet back over medium heat (no need to rinse or wipe clean, the remaining sauce will add more flavour).

    Add some oil to pan and add tofu. Let lightly brown for 3-4 minutes, stirring once or twice. Then add seasonings and stir. Cook for another 2 minutes, remove from pan and set aside.

    Add chips to the pan and pour over sauce, stirring quickly to coat. Then top with tofu scramble, fresh onion, cilantro and any other toppings you wish to include. Serve immediately.
