Preparation

Step 1

1.In a medium sauce pan add all dry ingredients and place on medium heat.
2.Stir with a wisk as dry ingredients are heated and begin to toast. Don’t let them burn!
3.Once they are warmed and begin to be very fragrant (again, not burnt) add the plant milk and wisk often.
4.Once sauce becomes thick remove from heat and let cool for a few minutes.

I like this drizzled over potatoes, broccoli, mixed into a casserole, or best yet on nachos. Unlike other recipes I’ve tried this one stays pretty fluid and is versatile enough to use in a number of different recipes.
