Get Your Game Face On

I'm talking Super Bowl ladies and gentlemen. I do have to admit I enjoy football. But due to my husbands lousy Sunday schedule, he has not seen one entire game this season. But he did get an early shift this Sunday for Super Bowl, so Savanah and I are on a mission to get our game menu ready. Yeah we are in-home tailgaters. If that is even possible. We go all out, chips, dip, veggie tray, you name it we have, it is the healthy version to junk food. Well I was scouring, yet again, through How it all Vegan and found this vegan alternative to cheese spread. Whoa!, this is to die for and oh so simple. It has a bit of a tangy twist, but trust me when I say that no one will be scraping this off their chips. So sit back, relax, grab your favorite beverage and enjoy the game.

1/2 cup nutritional yeast
3 T flour
4 t arrowroot powder or corn starch
1/2 t salt
1 cup water
1 T olive oil
2 t Dijon mustard
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In a small saucepan, whisk together the yeast, flour, arrowroot or cornstarch, and salt. (No heat at this time) Add the water and oil and continue to whisk thoroughly. Stir over medium heat until sauce becomes thick, then stir in the mustard. Heat for another 30 seconds more and serve. Makes 2-4 servings.

This will definitely be on some chips on Super Bowl Sunday in this house.
