ok, I'm not finding any at my local store. I can find vegetarian soy cheese but it all has Casein (spelling?) and that is a milk protein so not vegan. Any online resources ya'll can share. Please!!!!! I'm new to being a vegan and the only one in my family so not only do I need resources but support too.

 

Thanks,

This is the site for the Follow Your Heart cheese. I thought the cheddar was yucky, but both Guy (who is practically a carnivore) and I thought the mozzarella was fine: http://www.imearthkind.com/Also, here's a nacho sauce I like a lot

 

Thank, I'm married to a man who would kill a cow before eating an already made salad (but I'm trying to support his yucky habit like he supports me)

 

The sauce sounds yummy.

The very best we've found (and I've tried everything I can get my

hands on...) is the cheese by Follow Your Heart. You can order it

from them online but it is expensive to have it delivered. I have

my local natural foods store order it for me. If you have a health

food store see if they carry any of the follow your heart products

(vegenaise, salad dressings). If so, they can probably get you the

cheese. It works great. I buy the mozzarella, monterey jack and

cheddar.

This is the site for the Follow Your Heart cheese. I thought the

cheddar was yucky, but both Guy (who is practically a carnivore) and

I thought the mozzerella was fine: http://www.imearthkind.com/

 

Also, here's a nacho sauce I like a lot. I'm still working out the kinks:

 

Vegan nachos

 

Adapted from a recipe in Debra Wasserman's Simply Vegan .

 

1 1/2 cups nutritional yeast

2/3 cup flour (white or whole-wheat pastry -- I used regular whole

wheat, and the texture was off a bit)

2 cups water

1/2 cup vegan margarine

1 teaspoon granulated garlic

1 tablespoon prepared mustard

1 cup salsa, very chunky (or drain some less-chunky salsa to get just

a cup of the chunks -- homemade salsa works great for this, as does

just using a smaller quantity of canned jalapenos, diced)

 

Mix the first three ingredients together. Stir or whisk frequently

over medium heat until it's the thickness of a very thick pudding.

Add the margarine and stir and cook for another minute or two.

Remove from the heat and add the remaining ingredients. Serve over

tortilla chips.

*grin* I know how that can be. All my partners eat meat, and I truly

believe that the reason they will eat all the vegan stuff I throw at

them is that I don't give them any crap for what they eat.

I love Tofutti cheese. It's very tasty and melts nice in cheese

sandwiches. I find them at my local store and they aren't too

expensive... about $3 I think.

Tofutti cheese is my favorite. No casein, completely vegan, also certified

kosher.
