Vegan Caesar salad

Nut-free, Dairy-free, Gluten-free and full of nutrients. Nutritional yeast is a vegan’s best friend. This nutty cheesy story addition is a complete protein, meaning it contains all 9 essential amino acids. Nutritional yeast is a delicious source of protein, B vitamins (of which many vegans are deficient) and essential minerals. In just 2 tablespoons, nutritional yeast provides 5g of protein, 2 grams of fiber, 520% of your RDI (Recommended Daily Intake) of Thiamin, 480% RDI of Riboflavin, 220% RDI of Niacin, 420% RDI of Vitamin B6 and 630% RDI of Vitamin B12.
