Vegan queso

Tonight I watched Food Inc. and King Corn. I suppose I'll dream about HFCS and sad livestock tonight.

In related news, Rachael's coming over for dinner and a movie tomorrow night. We're going to have tacos and watch 500 Days of Summer. I saw it in early August in the theater with Lindsay and Meghan in St. Louis and had a pretty strong response to it. I'm wondering if time will change that?

For the taco part of our evening I'm going to try out this vegan queso recipe I found on the Post Punk Kitchen forum:

INGREDIENTS

* 1/3 Cup Nutritional Yeast Flakes
* 1/4 Cup Flour
* 1/4 teaspoon Paprika
* 1 teaspoon Salt
* 1 teaspoon Ground Cumin
* Dash Garlic Powder
* Dash Chili Powder
* 1 Cup Water
* 2 Tablespoons Vegan Margarine
* 1 10-ounce Can RoTel (or any other Diced Tomatoes & Green Chilies, drained)
* 2 teaspoons prepared Yellow Mustard (Not Mustard seed or dijon, just regular yellow mustard)

DIRECTIONS

1. Combine all dry ingredients (everything from nooch to chili powder) in a pan
2. Add water to pan, turn on medium heat
3. Stir constantly and once thickened, remove from heat.
4. Add in margarine, rotel and mustard. Stir until margarine is melted.
5. Once margarine has melted, put the pan back on the heat and stir until a bit thicker.
6. Serve over chips, enchiladas or in a quesadilla with seitan and veggies.
7. Eat warm.
