Made the vegan cheese tonight. My son thought it was cheddar cheese. My younger didn’t think it looked right so he didn’t try it but my mom loved it. I’ll have to experiment with the nutritional yeast and maybe I’ll use Rotel in it. Thanks for giving me a starting place.
I’m vegetarian and trying to be vegan..this recipe just perfect ! Tomorrow my blender arrive…can’t wait to try.
Do the cashews and almonds need to be soaked first?
No, they can go in raw!
Awesome! Did you get Twister jar? It is perfect for nut butters :)
