10 amazing gluten free vegan cheese recipes to use for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks! Use it for pizza, dips and more. Versatile and delicious.
We’re switching things up a bit here. Instead of the usual Friday Foodie Faves where I share my 10 favorite recipe finds from fellow food bloggers, now I’m switched over to themed posts.
With the beginning of fall now is the time to get into fall themed recipes. The past couple weeks I shared 10 Gluten Free Pumpkin Desserts, 10 Fall Apple Desserts, 10 Fall Sweet Potato Recipes, 10 Cauliflower Recipes,  and this week the theme is gluten free vegan cheese recipes!Â
I am very new to the process of making gluten free vegan cheese — having just recently made a couple batches of vegan parmesan cheese. One thing you’ll notice in most gluten free vegan cheese recipes is nutritional yeast. Pretty much all the vegan cheese recipes I’ve seen use nutritional yeast and I find that is because it really does seem to carry over that slightly cheesey taste in a way that nothing else does.
For years I saw recipes with nutritional yeast but never saw it sold at the grocery store. Just the other week I somehow randomly spotted it out of the corner of my eye and now I am hooked. I have added it to tons of recipes – most recently my vegan basil pesto and I seriously love love love it.
It is the perfect substitute for a cheesey flavor in vegan recipes and accompanies by a medley of other ingredients can really be turned into a gluten free vegan cheese based sauce that rivals a regular dairy loaded cheese sauce.
So this week the round up shares ten gluten free vegan cheese recipes from fellow food bloggers around the web.
