Creamy & Cheesy Sesame Sauce

Nutritious, creamy and dairy-free, Cheesy Sesame Sauce flavors the crisp texture of lightly steamed broccoli and soft, al dente linguini strands.

This creamy sauce is great over pasta, vegetables and poultry, and it even works well as a dressing for pasta and potato salads.

Makes about 2 cups

Cook Time: 52 minutes

Total Time: 1 hour, 2 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 2 ½ cups soymilk

  • 1 t. powdered garlic
  • ½ t. vinegar
  • 1 T. salt, plus more to taste
  • 1 t. ground black pepper
  • 2 T. plain unsweetened soy yogurt, such as Wild Wood

Preparation:

1. Combine the soymilk, soymilk powder and nutritional yeast in a small saucepan over low heat. Stirring constantly, heat until the mixture just begins to simmer and tiny bubbles begin to form around the edges of the liquid.
