Portobello Tomato Nooch Soup Ⓥ

11/19/2014

Comments

 
Nutritional yeast is specifically cultivated as a food crop for use as a nutritional supplement and to add flavor to foods. It’s an inactive yeast so unlike baking yeast, it doesn’t make food rise. And it’s not the same as Brewers Yeast, which is a by-product of making beer.

  • Rich in the B-vitamins: These are the same vitamins we burn when stressed out and when we put our bodies under stress, like a long run or high elevation hike reaching a summit. 
  • Just one tablespoon: Provides a daily serving of most of the B-vitamin complex, which in turn helps us to convert our food (specifically, carbohydrates) into fuel (that is, glucose), which is in turn used to produce energy.
  • Two tablespoons:  Contain 20% of the recommended daily allowance of iron, a biggie for vegans and active lifestyles.
  • Complete protein source:  Includes all the essential amino acids. 2 tablespoons offers 9 grams of protein!


A Vegan Staple: Called many names, including Nooch, Hippie Dust, Nutritional Yeast.

Portobello Tomato Nooch Soup Ⓥ

Ingredients
  • 1lb fresh portobello mushrooms, sliced
  • ½ small brown onion, peeled and diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil
  • 3 cups vegetable broth/stock
  • 1 can organic diced tomatoes (undrained)
  • 1 cup cashews
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp dried rosemary
  • ½ tsp dried oregano
Instructions
  1. Place cashews in a bowl of water and leave to soak.
  2. In a large pot, sauté the mushrooms, onion and garlic in coconut oil for 3 – 5 minutes. Stir frequently.
  3. Reduce heat to medium-low and add the vegetable broth and diced tomatoes. 
  4. Cover and allow to simmer for 45 minutes.
  5. Drain and rinse cashews and add them to a blender with half a cup of water. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  6. Add the cashew cream and dried herbs to the soup pot, stirring well to combine. 
  7. Allow to simmer for another 20 – 30 minutes.
  8. Season with salt and pepper, serve topped with 2-4 tablespoons of nooch
You may or may not find nutritional yeast at your typical grocery store, but you should be able to find it at your local natural food store – It's also available in bulk depending on your local store.
