Digging into The China Study Cookbook.


We tried, for the first time, a recipe from the CSC.  It was great!
The entree was Fetuccini with cashew sauce and broccoli!
We used whole grain fetuccini and the recipe calls for nutritional
yeast so this was packed with good vitamins too.

If you are not familiar with the CSC check it out - literally-
from your local library. I am sure after trying a couple of recipes
you will want to own this cookbook.  I've ordered mine!

  1. I ordered mine, too, Kris.... can't wait to get it and experiment. What is "nutritional yeast"??

  2. I wanted to get this right so I looked at wiki. Here is the answer:
    Nutritional yeast is a deactivated yeast, often a strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which is sold commercially as a food product. It is sold in the form of flakes or as a yellow powder and can be found in the bulk aisle of most natural food stores. It is popular with vegans and vegetarians and may be used as an ingredient in recipes or as a condiment.

    It is a source of protein and vitamins, especially the B-complex vitamins, and is a complete protein. It is also naturally low in fat and sodium and is free of sugar, dairy, and gluten. Sometimes nutritional yeast is fortified with vitamin B12.
