Let me begin by saying, OMG!!
In my 14 years of following a plant based diet, vegan cheese
has really gotten better and better.
And Heidi Ho Organics is one of those brands that really
blows most vegan cheeses out of the water.
Full of flavor, melty and best of all, low in fat, gluten free and mega healthy!
Woth flavors like chipotle cheddar, gouda, monterey jack and feta,
no one has the excuse anymore that they would miss cheese to much
if they went vegan. Not with Heidi Ho they won’t! Incredible vegan, gluten free, low fat and palm oil free, this stuff rocks!

I like daiya I have had that before, but does it work for baking?
I want to make baked macaroni & cheese for my boyfriend who is not vegan but he is lactose intolerant so all that dairy cheese would make him sick. I need one that melts nicely & would hold up to a creamy cheese sauce.

Thank you fellow vegetarians & vegans =)

Daiya and Teese cheese both work well for baking, at least in my experience. But if you’re a vegan yourself, you shouldn’t eat those cheeses because they are made with palm oil, which the production of it is chopping down millions of acres of rainforest. Just FYI. But if not, go for it!

I recently went vegan and have been trying some vegan cheeses and most of them are pretty gross. i just wanted to see if anyone had any idea of a good soy cheese replacement?

To clarify the answer: Daiya

DO NOT BUY "VEGGIE CHEESE"! (it has milk something in it)

Is there an online store that sells parmesiano-reggiano and the like that are $5 more or less. I don’t want vegan sour cream and cream cheese. The cheese that I currently have is parmesan but it smells and tastes horrible; how other vegans like it beats me.

try making your own Parmesan alternative called Sprinkles it is made from nutritional yeast flakes and sesame seeds that have been dextranized and cooled then ground. Very tasty and not to expensive for a large batch
There are several recipes for cheeza sauce different kinds and also ricotta alternative for stuffing shells but need to figure out how to find them and get them typed up for online use.
We also have a cookbook for sale but it went down last two time I tried to share them.

Vegan grilled cheese sounds amazing, but I think Friendly’s ill conceived idea may have been onto something. They created a Grilled cheese burger melt sandwich, so I decided to make one vegan.

Ingredients:

1 can cannellini beans, drained
3/4 cup nutritional yeast flakes
2-3 Tbsp soy sauce
1 tsp garlic powder
3 Tbsp yellow mustard
1/4 tsp pepper
1/2 cup instant mashed potato (unflavored) with 1/2 cup water
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons vegan butter, softened
1-2 Tbsp agave syrup
2 Tbsp tahini
1/4 cup almond milk

Vegan burger pattie
Vegan sandwich bread
Lettuce
Tomato
Vegan Mayonnaise
Daiya Cheese — Vegan cheese

Directions for cheese:

The vegan cheese sauce is really simple. Add all ingredients: nutritional yeast flakes, cannellini beans, soy sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, yellow mustard, pepper, mashed potatoes, water, extra virgin olive oil, vegan butter, agave nectar, and tahini, into a blender and blend until smooth. Add almond milk and continue to blend until desired consistency is reached.

Enjoy your Vegan Grilled Cheese Sandwich Recipe, I know I did!

I need to find a vegan cream cheese alternative. What stores carry them?
Stores in my area include Shaws, Stop n Shop, Trucchi’s, Walmart, etc.
Please help!

Stop & Shop usually has it in their natural foods section.

This Classic Mac’N Cheese recipe is a vegan version of everyone’s favorite comfort food. Being vegan doesn’t mean you have to miss out on the good stuff!

Classic (Vegan) Mac ‘N Cheese
makes about 4-6 servings

8 oz. sea shell pasta or about 1 1/2 C. uncooked pasta (use what shape you like here)
3 Tb. flour (I recommend all-purpose for this one)
1/2 C. non-dairy butter (Earth Balance)
1 C. non-dairy milk, I used almond (you may need a bit more for a creamier sauce)
1/2 C. nutritional yeast
1/2 tsp. tumeric (for color & added health benefits)
1/2 C. Daiya cheddar style shreds
2 slices rice cheese slices (found here, I bought mine at Whole Foods)-optional
1 tsp. sea salt
ground pepper to taste

Preheat oven to 375F.
Boil pasta according to package directions. Drain & put back in pan.
In medium saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Whisk in flour, stirring constantly as it thickens. Gradually add milk while continuing to stir. Cook for 2 minutes as it thickens, then reduce heat to low.
Stir in butter, nutritional yeast, Daiya cheese, salt & pepper. Add more milk as necessary for a creamier sauce.
Pour over cooked pasta.
Add the rice cheese slices (If you’re using them) by breaking them into bite-sized pieces and stirring them into the pasta mixture until they melt. (The result is a gooey, cheesy texture similar to a Velveeta recipe) The cheese slices are optional as it tastes great without them too.

Place in individual ramekins or 8″ x 8″ (or similar size) pan. Bake 12-15 minutes or until cheese is thoroughly melted (vegan cheese takes much longer to melt!).

*If you like it with crunchy breadcrumbs on top, just sprinkle 2 Tb. melted butter + 2 Tb. breadcrumbs mixed together on top and bake for about 15 minutes or until browned on top.
