Vegan Cheddar-like Spread

A spread made with white beans, carrots, nutritional yeast… perfect for sandwiches and as a dip!

I just can’t get enough of Jo Stepaniak’s book The Ultimate Uncheese Cookbook. This recipe is adapted from her “Gee Whiz Spread”. I would HIGHLY recommend buying this book if you’re vegan or lactose intolerant. It has a huge amount of recipes, mostly very simple and with ordinary ingredients. I love it!!!


Ingredients:

1 cup white beans, rinsed, cooked and drained
¼ cup carrots, cooked and chopped
4 TBS Nutritional Yeast
2 heaping TBS tahini
1 TBS lemon juice
1 TBS MCT oil (or any oil with no taste, like grapeseed oil)
½ tsp Dijon mustard
½ tsp Himalayan salt
½ tsp garlic powder
½ tsp onion powder
5 drops liquid smoke (Worcestershire sauce would do - NOT VEGETARIAN though! It contains anchovies)

Directions:

Pulse everything in a food processor until smooth. Store in the fridge for a few hours so flavors blend.

Extra delicious, extra nutritious.
