1. For the cheese sauce: Cook potatoes by placing them in a microwave safe bowl with 2 tablespoons of water.
2. Cover with a piece of plastic wrap and microwave for 5-6 minutes on high, stopping halfway through to stir.
3. Cool slightly before proceeding with recipe.
4. Put cashews in a microwave safe bowl with 1/3 of the water.
5. Heat in the microwave for 2 minutes until slightly softened.
6. Add the cashews with the cooking water and remaining water as well as the potatoes, olive oil, margarine and almond milk into a high powered blender (like a Vitamix) and blend until smooth, 4-5 minutes.
7. If you dont have a blender, you can use a food processor, just make sure to pulse as you go to break up the cashews.
8. Add the remaining ingredients for the cheese sauce and blend for another 2-3 minutes until completely smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides of blender halfway between.
9. Set cheese sauce aside.

18. Arrange tortilla chips on a platter or pan, throw the chorizo crumbles on top and pour cheese sauce on top.
