Dairy-Free

My boyfriend and I eat dairy-free; he has no choice in the matter because of a severe casein allergy. This creamy cheese sauce is not only dairy-free, but extremely yummy and a great base recipe. You can do just about anything with it! Add a dash of cumin for that smoky Cheddar taste for mac and cheese, add more garlic, butter, and parsley for Alfredo, or add a can of tomatoes and green chiles to make that staple queso dip! It bakes well, too. Try chicken spaghetti with this creamy cheese sauce!

I tried this recipe and it was a complete disaster! The sauce was watery and bland, and it didn't melt at all. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

This sauce is a bit too thick for my taste, but it has a great flavor. I think I'll try thinning it out with a little bit of water next time.

This sauce is pretty good, but I think it could be improved with a few tweaks. I would add a little more salt and pepper, and I would also try using a different type of milk. Maybe almond milk or oat milk would work better.

I'm not a huge fan of dairy-free cheese sauces, but this one is actually pretty good! It's not as creamy as traditional cheese sauce, but it has a nice flavor and it melts well.

I was really excited to try this recipe, but it was a bit of a disappointment. The sauce was too thin and didn't have much flavor.

Meh. This sauce was just okay. It wasn't as flavorful as I was hoping, and it didn't melt very well.
