Nutritional Yeast:
Everything You Need to Know Nutritional yeast is all the rage in vegan cuisine, especially for those who miss eating dairy. It is known for its unique "cheesy"
and nutty flavor. Nutritional yeast, or "nooch," is a dried deactivated fungus that is widely available at healthfood stores. It is highly nutritious, rich in protein, riboflavin (B2), pyridoxine (B6), vitamin B12, zinc, thiamine, niacin, folic acid, pantothenic acid and selenium. Its refrigerator shelf-life is two years. It's also gluten-free! Nooch can be used to add an extra kick to vegan pizza, macaroni and cheese and tofu scrambles. Being healthy never tasted so good!
