Oh, I think that was me, veggie33. I'll post my recipes and if

they're the wrong ones, then the other person can post theirs too. :-)

PIZZA CHEESE--Melty Nutritional Yeast Cheese

 

Recipe By : The New Farm Vegetarian Cookbook

Serving Size : 8 Preparation Time :0:00

Categories : American Cheeses And Cheese Sauces

Supper

 

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 cup nutritional yeast flakes

1/2 cup cornstarch

1/4 cup flour

2 teaspoons salt

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 quart water

2 teaspoons mustard, wet

1 cup oil

 

Mix dry ingredients in a saucepan. Whisk in water. Cook over medium heat,

whisking, until it thickens and bubbles. Cook 30 seconds, then remove from

heat. Whip in 1/2 cup of oil and mustard after it cooks. Add as much as 1

cup

water at the end, or as needed, to make a thick, smooth sauce that pours

easily. It will thicken as it cools but will thin when heated, or add

water to

thin it. Pour it on pizza and for the last few minutes of baking, put

pizza

under broiler for a few minutes to form a stretchy, golden brown speckled

skin.

NOTES : This is the recipe I use most often for pizza since it's a recipe

that

everyone likes. Putting it under the broiler doesn't work for me, though.

The

cheese tends to separate.

 

I use any leftover " cheese " for grilled cheese sandwiches.

 

P.S. I also freeze leftovers. It separates and looks yucky, but I reheat

it,

adding a bit of water, then put it through the blender to smooth it out and

it

tastes fine.

Blend cashews with about 1 cup of water until smooth, approximately five

minutes. Add a little more of the water, if necessary. Add a second cup

of

water and the rest of the ingredients and continue blending until smooth.

NOTES : Use this cheese in lasagna, on pizza, or bake alone thin on a

cookie

sheet and cut into squares, at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.

 

NOTES FROM ME: This is the cheese that I use for lasagna and what I prefer

for

pizza. I use less onion powder than they say and more garlic powder. I

also

use less lemon juice. A few times I tried baking it alone on a cookie

sheet as

the recipe states, but it didn't work for me.

Vegan Lasagna

 

Recipe By : Priska Volpe

Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00

Categories : Casserole Cheeses And Cheese Sauces

Italian Supper

 

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 package spinach, frozen, chopped

2 packages whole wheat lasagna -- uncooked

3 cups tomato sauce

1 onion -- chopped

1 recipe mock mozzarella cheese

 

Put uncooked lasagna in the bottom of a lasagna pan. It's okay if some of

the

noodles break. Put some tomato sauce on top. Put a little spinach

(drained

and well squeezed) and onions on top of that. Sprinkle on a little oregano

or

Italian seasoning. Pour some of the cheese sauce on top.

 

Add another layer of lasagna noodles, more sauce, more veggies, more

cheese,

etc. Continue making layers until the pan is filled. The top layer should

be

noodles, tomato sauce, and then use the remaining cheese sauce to make a

pretty

criss-cross design on the top. Put pinches of parsley or Italian seasoning

into

the " diamonds " created by the criss-cross pattern.

 

Bake at 350 degrees for about 1 hour.

NOTES : I don't always use spinach and I never use onions. <G> You can

use

other veggies like sliced zucchini or sliced eggplant, instead, or have no

veggies at all in the lasagna. This lasagna is really good.

You didn't ask for this one, but this is my favorite Macaroni & Cheese

Cook 2 cups macaroni in boiling water until done. Drain and toss with hot

Bake at 400 degrees for about 10 minutes. You can sprinkle a little salt

or

parsley on top before baking, if you like.

NOTES : I always double this recipe and bake in in a big lasagna pan. When

I

make the cheese sauce, I use about 3 1/2+ cups of water instead of just 2

1/2

cups, because I like it a little creamier.

 

You can add tomatoes, sliced on top or mixed in to the macaroni and cheese,

if

you like.
