Oil Free, Low Fat Vegan Nacho Cheese Sauce

Y’all! Where do I begin with this sauce? I slather this on pretty much everything I eat PLUS, since eating this my husband and kids are begging me for nachos every other day it seems. We all love this vegan nacho cheese sauce and I hope you do too.

Below you will find two separate recipes. One makes about 14 ounces and the other close to 32 ounce. Both are low fat (the larger amount is the lowest in fat) per serving and contain zero oil.

I hope you enjoy as much as we do.

Ingredients: Makes about 14 ounces

• 1/2 cup of raw unsalted cashews (1/2 cup PB2 powder for lower in fat option, or 1/2 cup white beans)

• 1/2 cup veggie broth, 1/2 cup water

• 3 TBSP of nutritional yeast

• 4 TBSP of instant mashed potatoes (preferably a brand with minimal ingredients - just dehydrated potatoes)

• 1 TSBP lemon juice

• 1.5 TSP white miso paste

• 1 TSP of smoked paprika

• 1 TSP of maple syrup/agave

• 1/4 - 1 TSP turmeric

• 1 TSP of garlic powder

• 1 TSP of onion powder

  I like to double this recipe so I have more. That doesn’t mean I use more per serving, I just have more so I don’t run out as fast.

  Instructions

• Mix all the ingredients together in a high speed blender on high for about 3 minutes or until hot. Pour in a mason jar or some type of container for storage. Enjoy!

  If you don’t have a high speed blender that can heat liquid, mix ingredients together well and store in a mason jar and heat as you use.
