Say Cheese and Die!

Today we are making Vegan “mozzarella cheese” that goes perfect on pizza, or anything you want, really.

Mozzarella, cheddar, gouda, brie! One of the most delicious things on this planet is CHEESE!

It’s bomb on pretty much anything and is the only thing I miss about eating vegetarian. It’s been a rough go finding the right plant-based replacement for cheese.

Other Vegan Cheeses Out There

Many try and a lot come up very short. Mostly because of anti-caking agents, the way it kind of melts like plastic, and the phlegm-like texture in the back of your throat when eating it.

The cheese we are gonna make today will have none of that.

Looking for some great cheese alternatives that fit more specifically to a need? Here are some of my personal favorites that you can find at the store today.
