Best Vegan Cheese Spread Recipe By Tasty Recipes

VEGAN GRILLED CHEESE RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a medium pot, bring 4 cups (960 ml) of water to a boil. Add the cashews and carrot and boil for 10 minutes, or until the carrot is fork tender.
• Use a slotted spoon to transfer the cashews and carrot to a high-speed blender. Do not discard the cooking water.
• To the blender, add the nutritional yeast, tapioca starch, lemon juice, salt, garlic powder, turmeric, and 1 cup ( 240 ml) plus 2 tablespoons of reserved cooking water (discard any remaining water). Blend the sauce for 2-3 minutes on high speed, until completely smooth.
• Pour the "cheese" sauce back into the pot and stir with a spatula over low heat. Clumps should begin to form. Continue stirring for 2-4 minutes, or until the sauce is thickened and stretchy. Remove the pot from the heat and set aside.
• Butter each slice of bread on 1 side. In a medium nonstick skillet, heat a dollop of vegan butter over medium heat. Once the butter begins to bubble, add a slice of bread, butter side down, and use a spatula to spread cheese sauce on top. Top with another slice of bread, butter side up. Cook for 2-4 minutes, or until the bottom of the bread is golden brown. Flip and cook for 2-4 minutes more, until the other slice of bread is golden brown as well, then remove from pan. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
• Slice the sandwiches in half and serve immediately.
• Enjoy!

EASY GARLIC HERB VEGAN CHEESE SPREAD

Steps:

• To a high-speed blender or food processor add the water, lemon juice, garlic, and almond flour. Blend until the texture is smooth and creamy. You may have to stop a couple of times to scrape down the sides. You can also add 1 tablespoon of water at a time to help the blending process, but don't add too much or you will get runny cheese.
• Transfer the mixture to a small mixing bowl, add nutritional yeast and herbs, and stir until everything is well combined. Taste and season with salt as necessary.
• Spoon the vegan cheese spread into the desired container, make sure it's packed really well, place it in the fridge, and allow the cheese to sit for 1-2 hours if you prefer a firmer spread.
• Enjoy with veggies, crackers, bagels, or sandwiches.
