Introduction

Slight adjustments to her recipe for the cheeze part of Vegan Quesadillas and Chipotle Cream. I doubled the recipe but made a few tweaks and an addition.

Ingredients

    4 serving Cashew Nuts, Raw (1/4 cup) - soaked overnight or quick-soak by heating in water for about 10mins - drain before using
    1.5 tsp Salt
    .5 cup Flours: Tapioca
    .66 tbsp Lemon juice
    4 Tbspn Red Star, Nutritional Yeast, Vegetarian Support Formula
    .5 tsp Garlic powder
    .5 tsp Pepper, white
    2 cup (8 fl oz) Water, tap
    0.5 cup Canned Goods: Thai Kitchen Organic Coconut Milk (13.66 oz can)

Directions

Taken mostly directly from her recipe -
1) Drain the cashews. In a high-powered blender or food processor, add soaked cashews and the remaining ingredients. Blend on high speed for 2 minutes until smooth.
2) Pour the cashew mixture in a saucepan over medium high heat. Cook for 5 minutes until the cheese forms into a gooey ball in the center. Stir constantly to prevent sticking. The cheese will stay fairly soft.

PS: I used this right after I made it, while it was still warm, on a mushroom pizza and it was *great*!!

Serving Size: estimated 6 servings but it depends on what you use it for
