Roasted Celery and Macadamia Cheese

Ingrédients

• 11 ounce celery
• 6 ounce macadamia nuts
• 2 tablespoon lemon juice
• 3 tablespoon nutritional yeast
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 cup water
• 2 tablespoon fresh basil
• salt and pepper

Préparation

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 350F. Wash, trim, and cut the stalks of celery into halves. Peel as many of the strings off as you can.

2. 2

   In a food processor blend the macadamia nuts, lemon juice, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, water, and fresh basil. Add salt and pepper to taste.

3. 3

   Lay the celery in an oven proof dish. Season with salt and pepper.

4. 4

   Spoon the macadamia nut cheese into the celery. Divide it up as evenly as you can.

5. 5

   Bake for around 40 minutes. If you’d like the macadamia cheese to look more brown, then pop it under the broiler for a few minutes. It’s ready when the celery is soft and can be easily cut with a fork.
