minutesIngredients
1 large carrot diced
1 small yellow onion
1.5 medium size white potatoes
2 cloves garlic
2 cups water
1 tsp white miso paste
1/4 cup nutritional yeast (+/-) per your desired consistency
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp chili flakes (optional)
1/4 tsp turmeric powder (for colour)
1 tbsp lemon juice (+/- per taste)
salt per taste
*1/3-1/2 cup cashews (Optional – good for kids sauce, or use 1/4 cup raw sunflower seeds if nuts free, or omit nuts & seeds during weight loss phase)
Directions
- Boil all the veggies on a stove top with water including onion and garlic. Once cooked, toss all veggies to a high speed blender and add 1.5 cups of reserved water from your veggies. Add all the spices, nutritional yeast, miso paste, nuts and blend till smooth. Store in a jar in the fridge for up to a week. Re-heat the sauce as needed prior to using throughout the week.
Notes
- This sauce can be stored in the fridge for up to a week. Serving size is based on 1/4 cup and may vary.
- *If you’re making this sauce for your kids or not for weight loss then I highly recommend adding cashews or sunflower seeds to make this sauce more creamier and rich.
