Homemade Cheesy Sauce Mix

Source: 

The Homemade Vegan Pantry, Miyoko Schinner --- altered by Eve

A handy mix to have on hand when you want a nearly-instant cheesy sauce. I began with Miyoko Schinner's DIY Box Macaroni and Cheese recipe, which was intended to appeal to children. I changed the proportions, left out the sugar, and added some cayenne for a grown-up version.
