Last week you learned how o-b-s-e-s-s-e-d I am with sauces.
To celebrate the successful release of my new cookbook, Happy Herbivore Gets Saucy 191 Oil-Free Vegan Sauces & Dressings. I have another sauce for you!
*RHUBARB BBQ Sauce*
Barbecue sauce is one of my faves, especially during the summer, so when 8 sticks of rhubarb showed up in my farm share box last weekend, I decided to try my hand at making a BBQ sauce with them.
OMG it's soo good! I love the pretty pink color it makes too. AAaaandd since it's already scorching hot outside, I made mine in the pressure cooker woo!
Try it out and let me know what you think!
