Overview
Nutritional Yeast is a potential vegan meat alternative for a high protein diet. Supposedly tastes like nutty parmesan cheese. Flaked or powdered. About $6 for 100g of protein. Complete amino acid profile. 10% calories from carbs, 90% from protein, some fiber as well, typically fortified with B Complex.
Dressing
This is the first recipe I've found that is mostly yeast:
https://www.eatingbirdfood.com/nutritional-yeast-dressing/
- 1 cup nutritional yeast
- 1/3 cup + 1 Tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1/4 cup coconut aminos, or low-sodium tamari or soy sauce
- 3 cloves garlic
- pinch of sea salt
- ground pepper, to taste
- 1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil*
