Method

  1. 1

    Add the silken tofu to your blender.

  2. 2

    Add the nutritional yeast and the soymilk.

  3. 3

    Add the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Start with the smaller amounts so you can adjust later.

  4. 4

    Blend until completely smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides once if needed.

  5. 5

    Taste the sauce and add more salt, pepper, garlic powder, or onion powder until it tastes just right.

  6. 6

    Pour the sauce into a small saucepan and warm it over low heat, stirring often, until hot. Don't let it boil.

  7. 7

    Spoon the warm sauce over your favorite cooked pasta, veggies, or potatoes and serve right away.

Storage

Keeps in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat gently on the stove with a splash of soymilk to loosen it.

Good to know
  • Add the soymilk a splash at a time if you like a thinner sauce.
  • A little extra nutritional yeast gives a stronger cheesy flavor.
  • Toss with hot pasta right away so the sauce coats every piece.
