2 of my favorite sauces! Cheese Sauce & BBQ Sauce!


TRY THESE ON ANY TING!!!! MEAT, VEGGIES THE SKY'S THE LIMIT!!!!!

Blueberry-Balsamic Barbecue Sauce

  *1/3 of a cup is a serving
2 cups fresh blueberries
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
3 tablespoons stevia
3 tablespoons Sugar free ketchup (I just used 1 small can of tomato paste and it worked great!)
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon salt

Place all ingredients in a saucepan. Bring to a boil; reduce heat, and simmer 15 minutes or until slightly thick. Remove from heat; cool. Place blueberry mixture in a blender; process until smooth.

-Serve over balsamic chicken or…. Whatever you want!

*If you are an an EM Meal plan, gave this over a serving of protein for any meal you like!  As much as you like!





cashew cheese sauce

 *1/3 of a cup is a serving
Ingredients
1/4 cup cashew pieces
1 tsp lemon juice
a pinch salt
sprinkle of onion powder
sprinkle of garlic powder
sprinkle of chili powder
pinch cayenne
pinch turmeric

Directions
Place everything in your blender, add a little water at a time until you get your desired, “cheesy” consistency. Blend.
(If you soak your cashews in water for a few hours it will come out a little creamier, but I didn’t have time and it still turned out GREAT!)

Pour on everything.  But for your dinner this week try it over steamed broccoli

*If you are on an EM Meal plan, this is a great option over veggies for meals any of meals 3-6, but keep in mind that the cashew's count for 1 of your servings of healthy fats, and you should only be eating about 2 servings per day. In other words, unlike the BBQ sauce, you cannot eat this as many times a day as you want. :)
