Nutritional Yeast Recipes

Cashew Cream Pasta

Raw cashews soaked and blended with garlic, lemon, and nutritional yeast into a thick, silky cream that coats pasta like a dairy-free alfredo. This is the recipe that converts people to nutritional yeast. The sauce itself takes about 5 minutes once the cashews are soaked, and it genuinely tastes like something made with cream and Parmesan — without either. Spinach and cherry tomatoes go in at the end for color and texture. The pasta water is the secret to making the sauce flow: add it a splash at a time until the sauce coats the pasta without pooling.
