Cuisine American
- 1 ½ cups potatoes, peeled and chopped
- 2 large carrots, peeled and chopped
- ¼ cup raw cashews(soaked or boiled with vegetables) this can be omitted if preferred
- 3 tbsp nutritional yeast
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- pinch cayenne
- 1 tsp white miso
- ½ tsp smoked paprika
- salt and pepper to taste
- ¼ tsp turmeric
Soak cashews overnight if using. If you have forgotten to soak your cashews you can boil them while cooking the potatoes and carrots.
Peel potatoes and carrots and chop into bite size pieces. The smaller the pieces the faster they will cook. Boil in pot until tender.
Transfer the potatoes, carrots and cashews(if using) to blender. Reserve remaining liquid. Add remaining ingredients including 1/3 cup of reserve liquid. Blend until smooth. If mixture is still too thick continue to add a tablespoon of liquid until you obtain the consistency you want. Adjust the seasoning to your preference.
