Vegan Alfredo Sauce (Paleo, Soy-free & Nut-free)

So today, I did it… and I think a Paleo & Vegan Alfredo Sauce recipe deserves it. Don’t you? This sauce is stacked with simple (wholesome) ingredients, with very little oil or unnecessary additives. No starches, soy, or weird flavorings. As for the nutritional yeast, it’s a bit up in the air as to whether or not it’s suitable for the paleo diet.

Keep in mind as you head into this recipe that the range of harissas available for purchase is vast - trust your taste buds, and if any of you have favorite brands, give a shout in the comments.

One tube might be tastelessly tomato-y, the next tongue-torchingly hot. That being said, the best road to a great harissa is to make your own, but I'd be lying if I said I'm religious about it - hence, the tube of red in my refrigerator door. Serves about 4 - 6.

And there's the loll around in the sunshine, preferably on a beach or lawn, variety. I got together with my family for the latter last week - seven of us, polliwogs and picnic tables, donkeys and dahlias, fish ponds, and even a turtle or two.

Lunch?... I stumbled on California-grown mangoes a few days prior. A bit of a heads up - there's a good amount of preparation involved in this recipe.
