This creamy, nut-free vegan cheese sauce only requires a few wholesome ingredients, is low in fat and delicious on pretty much everything.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Even in a vegan diet, you don't have to do without cheese sauce. What would (vegan) Mac 'n Cheese be without the cheese<\/strong>? Vegan quesadillas<\/a> and nachos also simply taste so much better with a bit of cheese sauce drizzled on top.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Fortunately, making a vegan cheese sauce from scratch<\/strong> is not complicated. An easy way would be blend cashews, yeast flakes, water and a few spices. This creates a very rich sauce slightly higher in fat. My whole food version<\/strong> may take a little longer to prepare, but it doesn't require any oil or nuts<\/strong> and is therefore significantly lower in fat than the cashew sauce.<\/p>\n\n\n[feast_advanced_jump_to]\n\n\n Potatoes and carrots<\/strong> form the basis of this cheesy sauce - not very traditional, true - but the starch from the potatoes makes the sauce really creamy<\/strong> and the carrots provide the right color. These two ingredients also contain lots of important nutrients such as vitamins and minerals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The rolled oats <\/strong>are also not a quite typical cheese sauce ingredient. However, together with the potatoes, they also ensure that the sauce becomes really lucious and creamy.<\/strong> This also means that no extra starch is needed. However, the oats can be omitted <\/strong>if desired. Last but not least: Nutritional yeast! <\/strong>Nutritional yeast <\/strong>is of course a must in a vegan cheese sauce! After all, the \u201ccheesy\" flavour <\/strong>has to come from somewhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n My favorite way to serve the sauce is with pasta, baked potato<\/strong> or in a Mexican bowl <\/strong>with beans, rice, vegetables and guacomole. What delicious things would you make with this sauce? <\/p>\n\n\n\n If you try and love this vegan and gluten-free nut-free cheese sauce, please leave a comment or give this recipe a rating.
