Tisha’s Gluten-Free Flour Blend

• 4 1/2 cups brown rice flour
• 1 1/2 cups oat flour (I use rolled oats and blend them until it becomes a fine flour)
• 1 cups tapioca starch/flour
• 2 cups potato starch

Mix all ingredients until well blended.  Store in an airtight container in the fridge.

T-Tip: This cheese sauce is so versatile. You can use it plain as a dipping sauce, add salsa for queso dip, or use it as a topping on your loaded nachos!

T-Time Saver: If you warm the milk before you add it to the flour, it will reduce the time it takes to thicken. This also freezes nicely so double the batch and save some for later.
