Macadamia Alfredo Sauce

This sauce only takes a few minutes to prepare. It provides a good alternative to cheese in noodle-type dishes, in wraps, nori rolls, and on sandwiches as a spread.

Serves 2

Ingredients

3⁄4 cup macadamia nuts

1⁄2 cup pine nuts

1 teaspoon agave nectar

2 tablespoons lemon juice

1⁄2 teaspoon salt

1⁄2 teaspoon black pepper

2 teaspoons minced garlic (optional)

1⁄2 cup water for blending

In a blender, blend together all ingredients until smooth. Gradually add the water as the sauce is blending. Add just enough water to help it blend into a thick sauce.
