Nacho Cheese Dip
2 tbs amaranth flour
2 tbs butter OR olive oil
1 cup milk OR dairy free substitute
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 1/2 tsp gluten free taco seasoning
1/4 tsp gluten free garlic powder
1/4 tsp gluten free onion powder
1/4 tsp salt or to taste
2 tsp finely diced fresh jalapenos (optional)
Melt butter in a heavy saucepan on medium low heat. Whisk in amaranth flour and stir until a bubbly paste forms. Cook for two minutes being careful not to let the mixture brown. Add milk or dairy free substitute and whisk until the sauce is smooth and thick. Bring just to a slow bubbly boil and remove from heat. Add grated cheeses, garlic powder, onion powder, gluten free taco seasoning and jalapenos. Stir until the cheese melts and the sauce is smooth and creamy. Serve warm with gluten free tortilla chips. Makes about 1 1/4 cups

Since DD went to organic and attempting to avoid gluten [among other things (she doesn't have any dietary concerns, she's surfed the web and has decided that she needs to eat a certain way;-\)], I'm getting hard-pressed to come up with meals, snacks, etc. that doesn't break the bank...sigh...
She's really pushing my creativity with food...giggle...
