Sunshine Sauce (Peanut Sauce/Tahini Substitute) (Paleo--Approved image

Got this great recipe off the internet, not sure of the origin, but I thought I'd recreate it here to share and make it part of my recipe box. It's 100% paleo compliant. Great for folks with peanut allergies. Great for folks looking for gluten free sauces. I use this sauce for Thai cooking and anytime I need a "peanut flavor" in my food. It's a great substitute for tahini (if you are of the mind it is not already paleo), when making hummus. Marry this recipe with my Mango-Habanero sauce, any you'll be in heaven.
