  • 1 cup cashews raw

  • 1 potato peeled and diced
  • 3 cups water
  • 1/4 cup nutritional yeast

Soup

  • 2 tbsp nutritional yeast

Instructions

  • In a medium pot, combine cashews, potato, onion, and 2 cups water. Bring to a boil then reduce heat to a simmer. Cook for 10 minutes until softened.
  • Remove from heat and transfer contents of pot to a blender. Add 1 cup of water (or more if needed) and blend to reach a thick creamy consistency.
