Cheese Sauce Dairy-Free
Need dairy-free cheese sauce for steamed veggies, soft pretzels, nacho chips, fries?
We've got you covered! Here's an easy recipe we use in our milk allergy home.
Cheese sauce for everything, let's go!
I know, mama.
Getting the kiddos to eat their broccoli can be a little tricky.
My mom had to doctor it up for me.
I gotta doctor it up for my own kids.
And cheese sauce is one great way to lure them in!
Even with milk allergy?
You bet!
We make a delicious dairy-free cheese sauce that goes well with so many things, including broccoli.
Just like my mom used to do.
To make cheese sauce, we first whip up an easy white sauce.
Then just melt in our favorite dairy-free cheese.
It's that easy!
Here are some of our favorite dairy-free cheeses.
WHAT TO EAT WITH DAIRY-FREE CHEESE SAUCE

Hope you love this easy, dairy-free cheese sauce as much as we do!
Can I use gluten free flour instead? My toddler and I can't have gluten.
Yes, it will still work fine.
Yay! So glad your little trick worked. 😉 Don't kids love anything with "dip"? Mine do!
Thank you for this recipe! My 5-year-old FINALLY tried cauliflower tonight after I topped it with this cheese sauce (Incl. Daiya cheddar). His comment - "I don't like it....I love it!" Yay, another vegetable makes it into our repertoire!
I get it at our teeny tiny health food store. You can do a store locator on their website. 🙂 Hope you find some!
