Introduction

My favorite dairy-free, protein-rich sauce! I use it for nachos, macaroni and "cheese", anything that requires a cheesy sauce. Don't let the yeast part daunt you -- it tastes awesome!

    The serving size breakdown: One whole prepared recipe can break down into six equal parts (i.e. two parts = 3/4 c of sauce; or entire recipe = 6 parts totaling 2 1/4 c of prepared sauce). One part of the prepared sauce = 110 calories, 5 g of fat, 11.5 g of carbs, 6 g of protein, etc., etc. - 7/31/12

    This is SO good! And it this nutritional stat is for whole batch, one serving - though I guess no-one will eat whole batch at once, it's altogether 2,5cups approximately... I took about 0.5 cups of ready sauce - 0.2 servings. - 10/15/09

    this was excellent. I cut the water in half and added a can of rotel tomatoes. I loved it. - 12/31/19

    DCATTANO, are you sure you used nutritional yeast and not regular baking yeast? That WOULD be gross! I made this tonight for nachos, but instead of the cornstarch and flour I added a can of garbanzo beans, reduced water to one cup , added 1/2 cup of hot salsa, and blended. Delicious! - 11/23/12
