Growing up in Wisconsin, I eat A LOT of cheese. When we say we like cheese, it is an absolute understatement. One thing I hear a lot about going vegan in Wisconsin is “I could never give up cheese”. This recipe will give you the cheesy feel, protein, and lots of health benefits.
This recipe is vegan, gluten-free, and sugar-free.

Will make about a cup of “cheese”. Takes 2 minutes to make.

- 1 tsp nutritional yeast
- Optional: 1 tsp of chia seeds, hemp seeds, turmeric, or maca for added health benefits
Directions:
- Put all ingredients in a food processor, blender, or Magic Bullet
