Healthy Deep Dish Cookie Pie And than a warm chocolate chip cookie? If you answered, “Katie, is better than a warm chocolate chip cookie,” you’ve obviously never met a cookie pie. (Above, topped with a super-healthy ice cream recipe I’ll post next week.) This pie is everything you’d want in a cookie. Except, oh yes, it happens to be ! I could sit here and tell you about how I was in charge of dessert for our neighborhood Memorial Day party. But really, you don’t want to know all of this, do you?

Random Vegan Recipes Bring 6 quarts of salted water to a boil in an 8-quart pot over high heat. Pour the tomatoes and their liquid into the work bowl of a food processor. Using quick on/off pulses, process the tomatoes just until they are finely chopped. Stir the penne into the boiling water. Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Just before the pasta is done, fish the garlic cloves out of the sauce and pour in the cream. Remove the pot from the heat, sprinkle 3/4 cup of the soy parm over the pasta, and toss to mix. Back to top What the Heck is Nutritional Yeast? Welcome New York Times readers! I hope you’ll check out some of my recipes while you’re here, and if you like what you see, follow me on Facebook or by email. Of all the ingredients I use in my recipes, the one I’m asked about the most is nutritional yeast. What It Is Nutritional yeast is made from a single-celled organism, Saccharomyces Cerevisiae, which is grown on molasses and then harvested, washed, and dried with heat to kill or “deactivate” it. Nutritional yeast has such an unappealing name that somebody started calling it “nooch” and the name caught on on the internet. What It Isn’t Nutritional yeast is not the same as brewer’s yeast, which is a product of the beer-making process and is very bitter. Where Can I Find It? You probably won’t be able to find nutritional yeast in a typical grocery store. I use the flaked version of nutritional yeast, but it’s also available in a powder. Why Use It? How Do I Use It? Sprinkle it on popcorn. Seitan Scaloppine with Lemon-Olive Sauce
