Notes
Note 1: This is a flakey, yellow powder that is used for a "cheesy" taste in some vegan recipes. It's packed with flavor and rich with vitamins and minerals such as B-12 and folic acid. You can buy nutritional yeast in most chain grocery stores (Bob's Red Mill is a popular brand) or on Amazon, of course!. If you can't find it, you can use shredded Parmesan cheese or omit it all together.
