Instructions
- Add the squash to a large saucepan filled with water over high heat. Bring to a boil then reduce heat to medium and let simmer for 15 minutes or until fork tender.
- Drain water from pan then add the nutritional yeast, coconut milk, extra virgin olive oil, shallots, garlic, ginger, salt and lime juice.
- Using an immersion blender blend the squash mixture until smooth. Add the tapioca starch one teaspoon at a time until the desired consistency.
- Serve immediately with optional toppings, in my AIP Nacho 'Cheese' Fries or store in an airtight container for up to 3-5 days.
Notes
- Reserve some of the cooking liquid of the butternut squash. If the ‘cheese’ gets too thick, you can always add a little of the liquid.
- I used an immersion blender, but a food processor would also work for this recipe.
- This is the immersion blender that I used.
- I don’t have a food processor but this one is on my wish list.
- Use an au gratin type casserole dish for this recipe like this one. However, a large ramekin would also work.
- Use in my AIP Nacho ‘Cheese’ Fries recipe.
- Lasts 3-5 days in a refrigerated airtight container.
- You can use this as a sauce or a dip. If you're using as a dip, then you can add chopped radishes, olives, cilantro, onions, etc.
