thank you for all the lovely recipes. I really appreciate the time you take to share all these videos
Hi there,
I have been loving your blog, videos and recipes since my husband and I have gone WFPB. I just made your bean and “cheese” enchilada recipe and wanted to let you know that the cheese sauce recipe as written resulted in a very watery mix for me. Is one cup of water correct? When I removed some of the liquid and added about another 1/2 cup of cashews, it came together perfectly. I’ll let you know how it tastes. It’s cooling down a little right now! It smells absolutely amazing.
Yes, the mixture is a bit wet but that is so it will pour nicely, but if it worked for you with less water that is great too. So sorry this is getting to you so late. Notifications weren’t getting to me.
This sounds and looks so good! Going on next weeks dinner menu!
Hi, I don’t live in the USA and I’m wondering what the weight of a box of tofu is in the recipe. Thanks so much.
These were delicious eaten with a guacamole topping!
