Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup walnuts
  • 3 cups broccoli
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375° F.
  • Roast the walnuts in a single layer on a cookie tray for 8-10 minutes. (You can roast more than necessary in order to freeze portions for future batches).
  • Chop the broccoli and then toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast at around 425° F for 20-25 minutes. You can line the baking sheet with parchment paper, but aluminum foil will give you the best caramelization.
  • Process together with garlic and nutritional yeast in food processor (preferred) or blender .
