Welcome!
Welcome to the most epic plant-based sauce book ever
created: LET’S GET SAUCY!

This book has over 50 sauce recipes that will change your life.
For real, they will take a so-so dish and make it gold, Baby!

I think it’s fair to say that sauce is one of the most important
parts of a dish. Sauce is what brings everything and everyone
together. No one just sits around eating wings, fries or tater tots
without something on top of them.

Sauces make dishes far more interesting. You would feel lost
without something to dip your waffle fries into. What would you
do without honey mustard? Well...vegan honey mustard that is.

A trio of simple chip dips makes it seem like you put some
serious effort into something, even if it took you 5 minutes to
make. Congratulations! You are now the MVP of Super Bowl
Sunday! If it weren’t for you, your spouse and friends would be
sitting around eating Fritos while simultaneously screaming and
throwing stale popcorn at the TV. That might make it fun for
you to watch, but their beer-filled bellies will scream for more
substance.

This book isn’t just a sauce book; the recipes within can turn
family get togethers into a way to convert your Aunt Judy into
a plant-based eater. “Oh this is vegan?” “I could totally be a
vegan if I could eat stuff like this!”

We know Aunt Judy; we’ve heard this a thousand times. Now,


you have a book so you can subscribe to our delicious vegan
recipes.

#LetsGetSaucy | highcarbhannah.co 9
WELCOME TO LET’S GET SAUCY

Also, these recipes are the perfect way to get your stubborn
father to try something new. And, I recommend that you don’t
tell anyone that these are “vegan” recipes. Let them enjoy it...
and then tell them afterwards. ;)

How the heck do I store these sauces?


Store in air-tight containers. Mason jars work best and sauces
will last up to one week in the fridge. If anything starts to
smell funky, throw it out. The good thing about vegan sauces
is that they don’t have ingredients like milk or eggs that can be
dangerous if they go bad.

Can I freeze these?


Yes, you can freeze any of the sauces! You will definitely want
to warm them up before serving (especially if they are a warm
dip) and stir them well. It can also help if you completely thaw
and re-blend any salad dressings before serving. That’s a pro-
sauce tip right there!

How do I soak my nuts?


First off, for any guys reading this, keep your mind out of the
gutter! If you do not have a high-speed blender (and even if you
do), it’s a good idea to soak any nuts or seeds before blending.

This will result in a much creamier consistency for all your


sauces since we all like things to be creamy (mind out of the
gutter!). To do this take the amount of nuts or seeds needed for
the recipe and cover with water in a mason jar, put the lid on,
and let it sit out on the counter.

It’s recommended to have them soak in water for 4 hours, but


they can always soak longer, as well. If you are going to soak
them overnight, put them in the fridge to keep them fresher.

What’s with the Rich Recipes VS Skinny Recipes?


If you are trying to lose a couple pounds (which you totally don’t
need to because you are hot as heck as you are, Girl), opt for

10 highcarbhannah.co | #LetsGetSaucy
WELCOME TO LET’S GET SAUCY

the skinny recipe over the rich recipe. These recipes replace
nuts or seeds and higher-fat plant foods with beans!
This gives you more protein to build that vegan muscle and
also keeps it lower in calories and fat. You can also try this
with any other recipe in the book, but I can’t promise it will
turn out as epic.

It will still be good, I’m just saying this to retain my integrity,


use with caution. My favorite bean to replace nuts and seeds
is white kidney beans or cannellini beans because you can’t
actually tell the difference. The skinny recipes in this book are
tried and true by me, and I highly recommend them. So, don’t
be afraid to get your bean on!

With all that said, sauces are pretty easy. Chop up some stuff,
throw it in your blender, and that’s it!

Thank you so much for getting saucy with me! I’ve written 4
other plant-based recipe books and a weight loss guide that will
help you with your journey for health or if you’re finding your
natural weight: highcarb.co/ebooks
