Indulge without the guilt

I have had butternut squash and queso on my mind since yesterday. And it dawned on me that I used to make a butternut squash cheese sauce years ago that was a great low calorie substitute for velveeta. So I wondered if I could make vegan butternut queso dip? I have made a vegan cashew based queso before, so I started with what I remembered from that recipe, and modified as I went according to taste.
1/4 cup cashews
1 small jar of pimentos
1Tb chile powder
1Tb lemon juice
1 cup butternut squash cubed, cooked
1/4 cup milk alternative
1tsp colemans mustard
1tsp minced garlic
1/4 cup onion
2Tb green chile salsa
Throw everything into the vitamix and blend till hot and creamy
