Vegan MoFo 2018 - Day 11 - Butternut Squash Cheese Sauce

Hey Vegan MoFo Friends,

I made my cheese sauce also using butternut squash.  I really like this version too.  It has a nice sweetness to it.  It was really yummy to dip hard pretzels into to it to snack on. I split it in two small pyrex dishes.

Butternut Squash Cheese Sauce

2 medium potatoes peeled and cubed

1 medium carrot peeled and diced

½ cup cooked butternut squash

2 Tablespoons grape seed oil

1 Tablespoon nutritional yeast

2 Tablespoons water from cooking the potatoes and carrots

½ teaspoon salt

1/8 teaspoon garlic powder

1/8 teaspoon onion powder

1/8 teaspoon celery salt

Instructions:

Boil the potatoes and carrots in salted water until soft.  Drain keeping the liquid on reserve to use for the water.

Add the potatoes, carrots, butternut squash, grape seed oil, water, and seasonings in a high speed blender.  Blend until very smooth.  Use some of the reserved water if needed to thin out if necessary.  Below is what it looks like in the blender.

Store in the refrigerator for up to one week.  Heat over medium low heat or in the microwave if you want it warm.
