SO HOW'D IT GO?
i just made this. it was pretty good. i halved the recipe. for the sauce i used 3/4 cup soy milk, 2T flour and 1T nutritional yeast. i wish i had used more nutritional yeast. it was not so cheezy flavored... i also added cumin, tobasco, and salsa to add flavor. it was a good consistency. i nixed the corn and added some finely diced zucchini that i steamed. baked on whole wheat tortillas. pretty good! i used more peppers than i should have cause i love spicy. next time i will throw in some garlic, too. overall, pretty tasty.
