Cashew parmesan

Plant-based "parmesan" is surprisingly delicious and easy to make. It has a base of cashews (which are sweet and rich) with nutritional yeast and garlic powder (savoury and fragrant) and a bit of salt. Big plus: you can feel good about sprinkling this generously on top of your meal. Add a hearty grind of black pepper plus a drizzle of good olive oil and the result is a really tasty way for plant-based eaters to swap the carbs and meat of traditional pasta dishes for healthy veges and protein. Try it sprinkled atop this black bean bolognese.

Ingredients

1 cup	Raw cashew nuts, or lightly toasted (Main)
2 Tbsp	Nutritional yeast
½ tsp	Garlic powder
1 tsp	Salt, to taste
