      Vegan Recipes with Nutritional Yeast

      Nutritional yeast is a vegan's best friend. You might have heard that, but wonder what you can actually do with it. Mostly it's used as a flavoring to give a cheesy, eggy, or general savory flavor to a vegan cheese or meal. Use it in slightly sweet dishes, like vegan crème brûlée or French toast, or in savory meals like lentil loaf and baked ziti. Here's a collection of vegan recipes that use nutritional yeast:

      • A slice of vegan quiche on a plate with a fork and basil leaves.
