Faux Cheese Soup

1 ¼ cups of diced, potatoes

1 ½ cups diced, carrots

1 medium onion, chopped

3 TBS nutritional yeast flakes

3 ¼ cups water

1 ½ tsp. salt

¼ cup raw (rinsed) cashews

½ tsp. garlic powder

 

Cook or steam potatoes until done (microwave is quick).  Cook the carrots and onions together in a separate dish until done (easily done in the microwave too).  Blend in blender the potatoes and cashews with 2 cups of the water until smooth and creamy.  Pour in pan.  Blend carrots and onion in blender with the remaining 1 ¼ cups of water.  Add to pan.  Add yeast flakes, salt & garlic powder.  Warm and serve.  Fresh sauteed mushrooms are a great addition to this mixture too.  Serve as soup, or sauce over noodles, rice, potatoes, or vegetables.
