Vegan CHEESE Sauce WITHOUT Nuts!
Have you ever heard of chickpea cheese sauce?? Today we are trying this healthy, vegan cheese-alternative! No nuts, no carrots & potatoes, just CHICKPEAS! (Finally a vegan cheese sauce without nuts!) Whole food plant based and easy to make, let's see if it's tasty or not.

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 cups chickpeas (plus about 2-3 tbsp. of aquafaba)
  • 1/2 cup nutritional yeast (I will modify to 1/3 cup for next time)
  • 1/6 cup lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 3 tbsp. tapioca starch (or + 1-2 tbsp. more if looking for a thicker texture)
  • 2 tbsp. white miso paste (I will modify to 1 tbsp. for next time)
  • 3/4 cup broth (low sodium broth or water for WFPB) 

Blend all ingredients together until smooth and heat the sauce on medium until it thickens. Enjoy!
