This next recipe is perfect for when you've had a long, tiring day and all you want to do is crash, it's healthy comfort food that tastes anything but good for you, and best of all you can chuck everything in one pot and have a delicious meal in 15 minutes with hardly any effort at all. One pot cheesy broccoli pasta - healthy, delicious & super easy too. Other veg like mushrooms, spinach and peas will also go well with this dish.I have a feeling this will become my go-to dish during my exam period when I'm mentally exhausted and even the thought of cooking is too much to handle. Before becoming vegan one of my guilty pleasure (and very rarely consumed) foods were the sachets you buy containing dried pasta and seasoning that you simply add water/milk to; this cheesy broccoli pasta greatly exceeds the taste of those artificial pasta sachets, containing all natural ingredients & having a rich cheesy taste, despite no cheese substitute. The trick? Nutritional yeast. Though only recently getting my hands on nutritional yeast or 'nooch' as it's sometimes referred to, it has quickly become one of my favourite ingredients when it comes to making creamy sauces.For the past few days I've been busy with revision but also making some important changes to my blog to make it easier to navigate my site; a drop down menu has been added which categorizes my recipes and some new features have also been added, including an all new comment system which allows you to comment using social media, a Disqus login or to simply click post as a guest (under the Disqus login) for ease of access.
