Given that sweet potatoes already have that lovely nacho-cheese hue, I figured it was worth playing around with a recipe that relied on them as the base. I love that recipe like crazy, but I wanted to come up with a nut- and cornstarch-free alternative. I wish I could take credit for that nacho cheese recipe, but it's the brilliant work of Kid Tested Firefighter Approved.

It’s especially important for vegans and vegetarians, because it’s one of the very few sources of B12 that is not derived from an animal product. But that’s okay, because it’s full of flavor and its main reason for existence is to add umami to your food! This is nutritional yeast.
