Lightened Up Gluten-Free Cheese Sauce
Ingredients
- 1 cup butternut squash (puréed, or mashed down into the measuring cup with a fork)
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 1 cup skim milk
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 2 oz. neufchâtel cheese
- 1 1/4 cups shredded, extra sharp cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Heat butternut, chicken broth, and milk in a saucepan until steaming hot, but not boiling
- Transfer to a blender, and blend until completely smooth
- Add remaining ingredients and blend until smooth
- Serve hot as you would any other cheese sauce
- Enjoy!
Note: You can also do the entire thing in a sauce pan using an immersion blender. Just add the cheese after blending your butternut and milk, and stir until smooth rather than blending again.
