The ingredients for Vegan Cheezy Sauce are:

1 1/4 cups water
1/4 cup raw cashews
3 Tbs nutritional yeast flakes (I use Bob's Red Mill)
1 Tbs cornstarch
1 Tbs unbleached all-purpose flour
1 tsp granulated garlic or garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp smoked paprika
1/2 tsp fine sea salt
1 Tbs non-hydrogenated vegan margarine (I use Earth Balance)
1 tsp rice vinegar
1 tsp Bragg's Liquid Aminos (soy sauce or tamari will work)

Here is how you make Vegan Cheezy Sauce:

If you don't have a high powered blender, soak the cashews in hot water for about 30 minutes and drain.In the blender, combine water and cashews. Blend at high speed until completely smooth. Add the nutritional yeast, cornstarch, flour, garlic, onion, paprika, and salt, and bled until very smooth.Transfer to saucepan and place over medium heat. Bring to a simmer, whisking constantly until thickened, 3-5 minutes. Whisk in the margarine. If sauce is too thick, add a little more water. Remove from heat and stir in rice vinegar and Bragg's. Use immediately or cool, stirring often, so no skin forms on the top of the sauce. When completely cool, transfer to a jar and keep refrigerated.Serving Size: Makes 11, 2 Tbs servings or about 1 1/2 cups totalNumber of Servings: 11Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user SHARSUE.
