Also because I want to see if the Best Vegan Mushroom Burgers will hold up on the grill. After several times making this recipe and having it …

Melty Vegan Pizza Dip

This recipe has quickly moved up our list of favorites – it is the sort of recipe that impresses the most critical carnivores. and it has – I have seen it with my own eyes.

You all know that when I am borderline obsessed with a recipe, I make it over and over again. Like, I still have a tiny bowl of this dip in the fridge right now, AND I have cashews soaking for a new batch I am making today. Honestly, it is a double batch.
