White Bean Cashew Alfredo Sauce

Aside from the taste, Alfredo sauce doesn't have too many other redeeming qualities. Made with heavy cream, parmesan, and lots of butter, it's not a sauce that's friendly to your health or to the animals.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 can white beans, drained and rinsed (or 1 1/2 cups cooked beans)
  • 1/3 cup nutritional yeast
  • 1/2 cup raw cashews
  • 3 cloves garlic, peeled
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 to 1 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup water

Instructions
 

  • Place all the ingredients in a blender and purée until smooth. Warm sauce in a small pot for several minutes before serving. Store in a covered container for several days or freeze.
