A nice basic sauce for casseroles,I developed myself.Add cheese to make great GF mac & cheese.Please dont subject your GF child to awful boxed pasta & powder.The whole family can enjoy this.
Ingredients

How to make it
- In a 3 QT heavy,non-stick saucepan over medium heat,melt butter.Stir in flours & starch.Cook for one minute,until smooth and bubbly;stirring occasionaly.Pour in milk a little at a time,stirring as you do so.You may want to raise the heat a bit at this point,for just a minute or 2 .Add cream cheese,salt and pepper (and cheese & mustard if making cheese sauce ).Lower heat to medium low.Continue cooking until sauce has thickened,stirring from time to time.
- Use in favorite recipe requiring white sauce.Or add cooked GF pasta and bake in a 2 QT greased dish at 400 for 20 minutes for mac & cheese.Sprinkle crushed potato chips on top for mock bread crumbs.
- You also omit cream cheese,for a less rich sauce.Or use half as much.I use low fat cream cheese.
