Surprised it's not here yet, but look into nutritional yeast. One serving is like 1g fat, 5g carbs (but 4 are fiber) and 9g protein

Many of the brands are fortified and get you your B vitamins, too!

I bought a big shaker can for a reasonable price when I was trying to make a ground beef style tofu preparation. That recipe didn't work out for me, but I'd been meaning to use it. I know people make a vegan mac and cheese with it, and that causes some polarizing opinions lol. Are there like specific recipes for it or would I just add it in to things I'm trying to change the macros of?

Anything where you want cheese-ish flavor. You can make a good sauce base with raw cashews (boil for five minutes), paprika, nutritional yeast, onion powder, and garlic powder. Good macros, and you can dump that on the cooked pasta of your choice and have baked mac and cheese inside a half hour..

Thank you I'll start trying to incorporate it into things and thanks for the cashew sauce recipe.
