One of the most popular recipes around here is my easy, AIP Dairy Free Cheese Sauce. It’s rich, creamy, packs an umami-punch of flavor and can be used to make everything from cheeseburgersĀ and dipĀ to nachos and taco salads. It’s a lifesaver when it comes to jazzing up simple roasted vegetables, too: we especially love to […]
Dairy Free Cheese Sauce
I’m going to go ahead and admit that – much to the annoyance of Mr Meatified, who in a former life was comprised of about 47% chocolate peanut butter cups – I don’t have much of a sweet tooth. At all. I am impervious to pastries, couldn’t care less about chocolate and am more likely […]
