ooey-gooey cheesy bean dip thing
oh my lord.  made this one with my boyfriend & mom and i think it might turn them vegan.  my mom is a huge cheesaholic, and she said it totally satisfied her cheese jones.  also, i think vegan sour cream is better than the original.
I haven't tried this yet but I agree about your comment on the vegan sour cream. It tastes smoother and doesn't have that bite at the end.

Going to have that tonight!  Going to also make a bean dip (Texas Caviar--all beans and veggies) to go along with it and have a mexican night!
I made this last night for my meat-eating family and they loved it!   Be careful what taco seasoning you use, make sure you like it first before stirring in the whole package.  I used one from Trader Joe's that I thought was too spicy...(but some people like heat).

Wow, Tracy, I did the same thing with the Trader Joe's mix!  The next time I made it, I used a little bit and it tasted fine.
Cool! We have friends coming to visit that LOVE cheese...I think I'll try it.
Where's the recipe?
I just bought all the ingredients to make this for our work potluck tomorrow!  I love it, and whenever I make it, nobody can believe it's vegan!! 

@Farol Gorden, the recipe is in Alicia's book, Kind Diet.

we just had this for dinner last night. i had made it before with the "cheese" baked in the oven and my husband wanted to try it cold instead...which we did last night minus the cheese. it was really good!! fun dinner, fun snack!!
i was a kaleidoscope
ooh, I agree about the Vegan Sour Cream being better than the real kind!  I feel the same way about Vegan butter, it's so yummy!
I haven't made this yet but it is next on my list. The picture makes my mouth water!
I haven't tried this because I worry about using all of the processed soy products, but maybe as a treat every now and then?  All of the reviews sound so good.
Ya it's definitely more of an occasional treat thing!
Making it tonight when my boyfriend is out, so he does not know I used vegan products (he is very anti-vegan)!  Cant wait to see what he thinks!
Oh man I made this last night and got my mom and some people from work to try it. They all loved it.  I know this isn't the healthiest of things to eat. I am trying to stray away from anything processed as well but it's nice getting people to try new things. Especially when they are all so skeptical. A lot of people mock what they don't understand. I just try to set an example and get people to try new things and be a more open minded. Little by little it's working:)
