My dear sweet husband has been living on smoothies since a minor oral surgery Friday. Tonight, he graduated to cheese soup: cauliflower, raw cashews, cannelini beans and sharp cheddar. More cheese than usual for us, but I'm trying to get calories in him

Poor hubby. I'm sure he is happy to have something more substantial!

I actually thought he'd never want to get off the smoothies 😂 I was making them pretty hefty -- milk, Greek yogurt, protein powder, avocado, peanut butter, blackstrap molasses, cocoa, and frozen bananas. He's skinny as a rail already, so I was doing my best to get protein and calories into him

It was really, really good, honeebuns! I'd like to experiment with a vegan version using nutritional yeast on this whole concept, but the cauliflower + beans + cashews base worked well. He's getting better every day -- last night, he actually ate some bread.

Many many years ago I experimented with nutritional yeast but never could figure out how to use it in meals that I prepared. This post gives me some ideas !

oh that soup sounds delish! for me I would cut back on the cheddar( still add it in there) and then add some nutritional yeast...as I live on that stuff lol....so I think I am gonna try and make this soon...

I do a LOT of nutritional yeast myself, flamingos! I have a vegan "cheez" spread recipe made with white beans, roasted red peppers, and nutritional yeast (and a couple of other things) that is really reminiscent of Cheez Whiz. The only reason I loaded up on the cheddar this time was because my husband was losing weight he didn't have to spare when he couldn't chew. Next time, I'll try it either with just the nutritional yeast, or with a combo.

honeebuns -- nutritional yeast is used a lot in vegan cooking to mimic a cheesy flavor. If you're interested in trying it, try looking up vegan recipes for cheese sauce or vegan mac and cheese. I love the stuff.

It wasn't bad, liv! Left to my own devices, I probably would have used unpeeled potatoes instead, but my husband gave those up, so cauliflower it is

And an update on the hubs: he's doing better and can eat solid food again, albeit gingerly. However, he's now hooked on chocolate smoothies 😂 Guess we'll be buying more bananas!
