4 Ingredient-Walnut Sauce

Last week’s guest, Jane Birch graced us with not one but two very simple, very delicious sauce recipes that have seen her through her plant-based journey and are great to have on hand.

This one is ultra simple and works on just about anything you would like topped!

This one is a favorite in the plant-based community and one I can’t believe I hadn’t tried until now! It’s super tasty, although high fat. Many plant-based eaters do just fine eating as many nuts as they please, others need to be careful or too many nuts can have an adverse affect on their weight or insulin issues.

But whether you use this sauce generously or sparingly, walnuts are one of the very best places to get your fat and this quick and easy recipe is super tasty on just about everything!
