Mmmm Sauce - LOVE THIS RECIPE!

Inspired by Café Yumm’s Yumm Sauce and this recipe

Makes 1 1/2 cups

• 1/4 c. canola oil (or oil of your choice)
• 1/4 c. almonds
• 1/3 c. water
• 1/4 c. chickpeas, drained and rinsed
• 1/4 c. nutritional yeast
• 2 1/2 T. lemon juice
• 1 t. minced garlic
• 1/4 t. salt
• 3/4 t. curry powder
• 1/2 t. dried oregano
• 1/2 t. dried cilantro

Note: this recipe could easily be doubled and leftovers will keep covered in the fridge for 7-10 days

In a high speed blender or food processor, combine oil, almonds, water and chickpeas.  Blend until relatively smooth.

Add remaining ingredients and blend until smooth.

Transfer to a small bowl and refrigerate until serving.

Nutritionally speaking, this sauce is in the same ballpark as hummus or salad dressing, but with a little more protein and vitamin B12, and a whole lot more totally craveable flavor.

If your sauce is too thick, or thickens up overnight in the fridge, just add a touch more water so you can drizzle it.

And trust me, you’ll want to drizzle it.  On everything.
