Notes

*plant-based sour cream – I use Good Karma sour cream. If you can’t find any locally this dip is still good without sour cream. 

**dairy-free cheese – I used Daiya cheddar shreds in this recipe.

    Hello! We are new to the dairy-free world and struggling a little bit with the cheese aspect of it. How do you like the Daiya cheddar shreds? Thank you for the great recipes. I’ve been gluten free for years so I really appreciate your blog!

      I think Daiya has changed their recipe and I like it much better now than when we first went dairy-free several years ago. It’s not exactly like cheese, nothing else ever will be but I find it’s good in certain recipes. And thank you, I’m glad my blog has been helpful!
