Question: I have a bag of nutritional yeast flakes!. What do I do with it!?
Answers:
There are lots of options!.

I use it in my seitan simmer water!.

There's a recipe on www!.vegweb!.com for Lemon Tofu with Capers that calls for nutritional yeast!.

You can sprinkle it on popcorn!. You can sprinkle it on spaghetti (instead of using cheese)!. You can use it in a dredging mixture when frying up tofu/tempeh/seitan!.

I have heard of a nutritional yeast cookbook, but I don't think I've seen it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

It's yummy on popcorn (tastes sort of cheesy/nutty!.)

There are approximately 1,000,000 recipes floating around out there for cheesy sauces based on nutritional yeast!.

I sprinkle it on tofu scramble, moisten it with a splash of lemon juice and mix it up for a tangy coating of flavor!.

Toss some in a food processor with some sesame seeds and pulse until it's sort of crumbly!. It makes a nice replacement for parmesan to sprinkle over pasta!.

There's also a whole cookbook devoted to nutritional yeast called, perhaps not coincidentally, "The Nutritional Yeast Cookbook" by Joanne Stepaniak!. It's just a slim paperback, but there's lots of good ideas in there!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Depends on how simple or involved you want to dish up;
1) Sprinkle on Popcorn(taste like cheese)
2) Add to salad dressing
