If you're big on bold, amazing flavour, then you'll be drawn to this plot twist. Thanks to our NEW Better Cheddar vegan cheese powder we've got a next level amazing, gooey Nacho Cheese Sauce recipe for you.

Nacho's just aren't the same naked, you need that cheese-sauce-come-knight-in-shining-armour to bring all the recipe elements together. Luckily you'll only need less than 10 ingredients for this seriously easy recipe and a blender handy. 

Most of ingredients are pantry staples so no fretting over the details! Aside from our Better Cheddar powder of course, because it's hard not to get a little fanatical about it. What helps turn the Better Cheddar sauce into a Mexican inspired cheese fiesta is the help of some classic Mexican spices: paprika, cumin, and turmeric. Pop those in a blender along with the wet ingredients and get ready to dress those nachos!
