Ingredients

• 2 medium zucchinis
• 2 cups broccoli “rice”
• 1/2 cup non-fortified nutritional yeast
• 2 tbsp onion powder
• 1 tsp turmeric
• 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
• 3 artichokes
• 2 cloves garlic

3. In a blender combine hemp seeds, nutritional yeast, onion powder, garlic, turmeric, Dijon mustard, artichokes, Natura Fiber, lemon juice, apple cider vinegar and avocado oil.
4. Add the “cheese sauce” from the blender into the bowl of greens and mix well to form a thick batter. If batter is too runny add in more Natura Fiber to thicken.
