Nutritional yeast is pure GOLD! Especially for vegetarians, vegans....it is the perfect addition to most meals. It has a nutty, cheesy, creamy flavor and texture. I add it to salads in place of parmesan, and use it to make cream sauces too (like this vegan cheese dip, and also vegan alfredo sauce, vegan aioli, and even mac and cheese!)
Plus, one of the biggest benefits is that is is PACKED with B-12 vitamins, which is the one thing you can't get from vegetables alone. So it's perfect in that way (it makes your pee bright yellow from all the B-vitamins in it!)

Enjoy!!
