What I Eat In A Day + Sauce Recipe!

nutritional yeast

🥗Healthier: brewer's yeast

💰Cheaper: parmesan cheese

Brewer's yeast is lower in calories and still provides a cheesy flavor.

coconut milk

🥗Healthier: almond milk

💰Cheaper: soy milk

Almond milk is lower in calories and provides a lighter texture.

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Avocado oil is healthier due to its higher smoke point and healthy fats.

vegetable broth

🥗Healthier: homemade broth

💰Cheaper: water with seasoning

Homemade broth is fresher and allows for control over sodium.

Heat olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat until shimmering.

Add chopped onion and minced garlic; sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

Stir in diced tomatoes, chopped carrot, and celery; cook for 5-7 minutes until softened.

Add bell pepper, basil, oregano, and red pepper flakes; mix well.

Pour in vegetable broth and bring to a simmer; cook for 10 minutes to meld flavors.

Blend the mixture until smooth using an immersion blender or regular blender.

Stir in nutritional yeast and lemon juice; season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Simmer for an additional 5 minutes to thicken slightly.

In a separate bowl, combine cashews, dates, garlic, stone ground mustard, and Braggs to create a sauce.
