No-Cheese Cheeze Sauce/Dip

"A great vegan "cheeze" sauce! Try it on pizza, in tacos/tortillas or as a dip for nacho chips. To make "queso" sauce, just add 1 cup salsa at the end."

  1. This is pretty good. I made it with arrowroot powder but it was still not very thick. It's good for mac 'n chz, which is what we had it with, but not a dip consistency (or spreadable). The kids didn't turn their noses up at it, so that's good!
     
  2. Good thing this is healthier than "real" cheese sauce because I can't get enough of it! Nothing vegan tastes exactly like cheese (nor should it), but this is pretty darn close! I drizzled it on top of polenta with marinara sauce. The next day I added salsa and had it with tortilla chips. It's also good plain. Definitely the best vegan "cheese" I've had. Edited 9/24/07: The first time I made this, I forgot to add the cornstarch, because it is not mentioned in the directions. I tried it again with the cornstarch, and I must say, the consistency was much better without it. Reviewed for PAC 2007
