Cashew gravy

Simple, creamy, healthy gravy. Great with mashed potatoes, stuffing, or warm biscuits. All you need is a blender and a sauce pot. My favorite gravy recipe ever!

2 c water
.5 c cashews
1 T cornstarch
1.5 t onion powder
1.5 T braggs
2 T nutritional yeast

Puree cashews with 1 c water, until completely smooth (no chunks at all!).
Add remaining ingredients, puree until combined.
Pour gravy into a pot, cook over med-low heat, stirring constantly, until it comes to a boil.
Remove from heat and let sit for about five minutes before serving.

What is braggs?

Braggs liquid aminos. It's kind of like soy sauce, but it has a richer, less salty flavour. You can find it at health food stores.

Sometimes you can buy it by volume, so you could get just an ounce and try it. Bragg's reminds me of Dr. Bronner's soap, because it's made by weirdos, and of nutritional yeast, because of the cult following.
