🍲 Ingredients

Nutritional Yeast – What’s great about nutritional yeast is it gives that cheesy flavour you get from regular dairy cheese. It’s made from a single-celled organism called saccharomyces cerevisiae which is grown on molasses and then harvested, washed, and dried. Most yeast froths or grows, think about the baking yeast you use when you bake. However, since this yeast is deactivated or killed in the drying process it doesn’t have any ability to leaven. No animals are harmed in making nutritional yeast and it’s one of those fantastic additions to any recipe where you want that cheesy taste. I throw it on and in so many recipes!
