Kefir Cheese Sauce

If you are looking for another way to get your veggies in, try this yummy kefir cheese sauce.  It is also an easy way to sneak in some added probiotics to your diet.  I love it with broccoli and cauliflower as a side dish.  It is also delicious over pasta with peas, broccoli, and chicken.  This recipe is slightly modified from VFit Squad. 

Ingredients:

¼ cup plain, unsweetened organic kefir  (I use goat Kefir as it is easier for my family to digest).

¼ cup grated cheese (I have tried this recipe with both goat and sheep cheese. If you do use cow cheese, 100% grass fed is best.)

1 tbsp ghee or grass fed butter

dash of pepper and garlic powder

Instructions:

1.     Boil noodles or steam veggies  (I recommend brown rice pasta with a pea protein.  Explore Cuisine is our favorite brand.  It has 11 g of plant-based protein).

2.     In a separate sauce pan, combine all ingredients, and simmer, stirring constantly until cheese is melted. 

3.     Add pasta or veggies in the sauce pan and mix. 
dEnjoy!
