Vegan Ricotta

Just make this recipe. With almonds, it is the creamiest, most delicious Ricotta you have ever tasted. It can also be made with pumpkin seeds or sunflower seeds. The miso is optional, but will give the ricotta a cheesy flavor with a hint of salt. Ingredients: 12 ounces raw organic almonds, or green pumpkin (pepitas)…

Quick Cashew Cheese Sauce

This light frothy sauce is so easy to make and absolutely delicious. With a high-powered blender like a Vitamix the cashews do not need to be soaked in advance. A regular blender can be used but then the cashews must be soaked in water for at least 4 hours to soften them first. Soaked cashews…

And…

Baked Queso Dip

This makes a really great party dip or something to spread on tortillas or as a fondue with vegetables and cubes of baked tofu or some of our tempeh bacon and scallions on top of a potato…if it makes it that far because you’re probably just going to eat it right out of the baking…

Sunflower Seed Cheese Spread

Say goodbye to cheese made from animal milk and say hello to the wonderful world of nut and seed cheeses. This recipe makes a creamy, mild cheese that goes well with so many things. Use your imagination! Try it on crackers, with crudités or inside our REAL Collard Rolls. 1 cup hulled sunflower seeds 2…

Cashew Jack

Cashew Jack — A variation on the Cashew Cheddar recipe already on our site. I find that this is a much creamier cheese and is perfect for pizza because of the olive oil. You can also experiment with herbs and spices such as adding a teaspoon of red pepper flakes to give it a kick.…
