How can I make cheese sauce healthier?

Use low-fat milk, Greek yogurt, or pureed vegetables as base ingredients, incorporate reduced-fat cheese, and add nutritional yeast for extra nutrients while maintaining creamy texture and flavor.

What are the best cheese options for a lighter cheese sauce?

Choose strong-flavored cheeses like sharp cheddar or Parmesan, as you can use less while maintaining taste. Low-fat mozzarella and cottage cheese are also excellent lighter alternatives.
