An incredible cheesy gooey sauce made without any dairy or cheese! Use this over pasta or just as a dip.
Place a pot of water on to boil and salt generously. Once it comes to a boil, add in your pasta. Cook till al-dente.
While your pasta is cooking, add olive oil to a sauce pan on medium heat. Once your oil warms up, add the flour and stir briskly preferably with a whisk. Fry the flour in the oil for at least 30 seconds to cook it.
Pour in your milk and stir vigorously with a whisk to avoid lumps. The sauce will slowly thicken. Let it cook until you are able to draw a line in the saucepan. Do remember that it will continue to thicken as it cools down.
Remove from heat and then stir in the nutrition yeast, mustard, salt, pepper and the garlic and onion powder if you are using them.
Once the nutritional yeast has been mixed well into the sauce, add in the pasta and mix well. You can even serve your sauce as a cheese dip instead of with pasta. Serve warm.
