Are you craving a quick and easy cheesy topper? Then Nooch It from UPrise Foods might be worth sampling. This wholesome, organic blend is made with simple ingredients, but it boasts some complex flavors. It’s similar to homemade dairy-free “grated” Parmesan – a blend of nuts, nutritional yeast, and seeds. Yet, it’s a special combination that was a bit unlike any recipe I’ve tried.

Tasting Notes for Nooch It

I have to admit, Nooch It hits all the right notes for savory, salty, and rich flavor. It might not taste exactly like Parmesan cheese, but it’s a pretty darn good alternative.

I used it mostly atop popcorn and just loved the cheesy flavor it imparted. It does have some larger bits that don’t cling perfectly to the popcorn. But it’s so delicious that I devoured every last crumb once the popcorn was finished.

It’s also a great option for sprinkling on pasta dishes, rice, and veggies. The one caveat is that it doesn’t tend to melt in like Parmesan. Instead it adds flavor with a touch more texture.

Ingredients – organic cashews, organic nutritional yeast, organic brown rice powder, organic garlic powder, organic hemp seeds, sea salt. Contains: cashews (tree nuts)
