    The flavor profile is complex. Filled to the brim with nutrient-dense veggies, and spices like oregano, celery seed, cumin, and turmeric...all balanced with a bit of salt, and a bit of sweet. Optionally topped with a handful of shredded parmesan or nutritional yeast - you have yourself a very healthy & delicious meal that is big on personality to boot! I can't wait to hear just how much you like it, too . . .
