Cheese Sauce
Equipment
- 1 Vitamix
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups potatoes, chopped
- 1 medium carrot, chopped
- ¼ cup raw cashews, optional
- 3 tbsp nutritional yeast
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- pinch cayenne
- 1 tsp white miso
- ¼ tsp turmeric
- ½ tsp salt and pepper to taste
- ¼ -3/4 cup cooking liquid or more
Instructions
- Peel and cut the potatoes and carrots, add to pot with cashews if using. If you are keeping this fat free, omit the cashews.
- Once the potatoes and carrots are tender, add to the blender with all the spices and start with 1/4 cup of cooking liquid and start to blend. Slow add cooking liquid until the mixture blend but remains thick. Continue to blend for about 2 minutes until smooth.
- Depending on what you are using your cheese sauce for you may need to add more liquid. I like it thick for topping bake potatoes and vegetables and I thin it out to make scalloped potatoes.
- Adjust the seasoning to your liking. Also great to add, red peppers, salsa, or change the spices
