Ingredients (use vegan versions):

  • 1/4 stick of margarine
  • 1 cloves worth of garlic (or more)
  • 1 cup of plain soymilk
  • 1 tablespoon of flour
  • 1/2 cup of vegan parmesan vegan cheese
  • 1/4 cup of finely grated vegan mozzarella cheese. (I used Veganrella)
  • salt, pepper, garlic powder

Directions:

1. Melt the margarine in a saucepan.

2. Add the garlic and let it sit for a
couple minutes so the garlic flavor
can infuse into the margarine. Stir it!

3. Add the soymilk and the flour.
Whisk it.

4. Add the seasonings and the vegan cheeses.
Whisk it thoroughly until the vegan cheeses
melt. It will start to really thicken
up once it gets hot.
