Vegan Parmesan

• 3/4 cup raw cashews
• 3 tbs nutritional yeast
• 1/4 tsp sea salt
• 1/4 tsp garlic powder

Version 2:

• 3/4 cup raw cashews
• 1 garlic clove
• 1 tbs nutritional yeast
• 1 tbs olive oil
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• sea salt to taste

Version 3:

• ½ cup hemp seeds
• ¼ cup nutritional yeast
• ½ tsp garlic powder
• ½ tsp onion powder
• ¼ tsp fine sea salt, to taste (I usually add a pinch or two more after tasting).

Directions:

1. All all ingredients to a food processor bowl and pulse until the mixture is combined (You don’t need to do this for variation #3 — In this case, all ingredients can be added to a bowl and stirred.)
2. Salt to taste.
3. Serve on top of pizza, pastas, salads, avocado toast, etc. Use to add flavor and thicken creamy pasta sauces.
