Ingredients
Scale
- 2 Tbsp butter
- 2 Tbsp gluten free flour
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1 1/2 cups whole milk, or half & half
- 2 cups shredded white cheddar cheese
- 2–3 dashes Louisiana hot sauce, or to taste
- Baked or roasted vegetables – our faves are baked russet potatoes with broccoli and cauliflower – and bacon or leftover chicken
Instructions
- Melt the butter in a medium-sized sauce pan, sprinkle the flour and black pepper over the surface, whisk together and allow to cook for 1-2 minutes.
- Pour in the milk, and whisk. Allow to simmer slowly until beginning to thicken, which takes just a few minutes.
- Stir in the grated cheese and hot sauce, then season as you wish. (Don’t add salt until you’ve tasted it, because the cheddar makes the sauce pretty salty.)
