Ingredients

  • 1 can no salt added great northern beans, drained and rinsed

  • 1 cup cooked sweet potato or other variety of potato (steamed or boiled)

  • 1 teaspoon granulated garlic

  • 1 teaspoon granulated onion

  • ½ teaspoon smoked paprika

  • ¼ teaspoon ground turmeric

  • ⅛ teaspoon black pepper

  • ¼ to ½ cup nutritional yeast

  • 1 tablespoon stone ground or dijon mustard

  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

  • Optional: small handful raw cashews, soaked

  • 1 cup water (more or less as needed to achieve your desired thickness)

Directions

  • Add everything to your blender container or food processor. Blend until smooth. It will take about 1 minute in a high powered blender, but may take a couple minutes in a food processor.
  • For a warm cheesy sauce, either blend a few minutes more in the Vitamix or heat in the microwave or on the stovetop.
