My Famous Vegan "Cheese" Sauce
The post you have all been waiting for - my famous "cheese" sauce! I have been making this sauce for almost a year and it simply gets better and better each time it's made.
I'm sensitive to cashews so most of the vegan cheese sauces that have been developed aren't ones I can really use. I could but it would throw off my digestion and thyroid antibodies so it's simply not worth it.
I got really creative one day because I wanted in on all the vegan cheese fun and alas, this recipe was born. It's incredibly versatile - good on pasta, rice, salad, potatoes, eggs, anything really!

- 1/4 cup filtered water
- 1 tbsp turmeric

D I R E C T I O N S:
Boil enough water to steam 1 cup of cubed butternut squash. Preheat the oven to 350, cut the sweet potato in half and bake for roughly 30 minutes until soft.
Once the butternut squash & sweet potato is soft and slightly cooled - add to a blender with nutritional yeast, emulsifier of choice (almond milk, avocado oil or ghee), filtered water, turmeric, and spices.
Blend until smooth and add to any dish of your choosing!
