Sweet Potato Cheese Sauce
By Katie Mae, PlantzSt.com
Serves: Makes about 2 1/2 cups
Prep Time: 8 min
Cook Time: 17 min
Ingredients
1/2
Yellow onion, diced
2
Garlic cloves, diced
1
Medium orange sweet potato, peeled and diced (8 oz)
3/4-1 1/4 Cup
Water, depending on your desired consistency
1/4 Cup
Nutritional yeast
1 Tbsp
Stone ground mustard
1 Tsp
Salt-free seasoning (i.e. Benson's Table Tasty)
1/4 Tsp
Black pepper
Directions
Add the onion and sweet potato to a medium saute pan over medium heat. As you start dry-sauteing the veggies, add the garlic. Stir occasionally to prevent burning. After a few minutes when the onion starts to turn translucent, add just enough water to cover the diced sweet potatoes. Cover, bring to a simmer, and gently cook until the sweet potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes. In a blender combine the water, nutritional yeast, mustard, salt-free seasoning, and black pepper. Add the cooked sweet potato, onion and garlic. Blend into a creamy cheezy sauce. Stores 5 days in the fridge.
