Vegan Parmesan Cheese

Thank you so much for this recipe! I had tried Go Veggie's parmesan and couldn't stand it. It tastes like metal to me. I just whipped this recipe up in minutes using a hand chopper and it is delicious! This is going to bring back several recipes that I have missed since becoming lactose intolerant. Thank you, thank you!!!

I made this with macadamia nuts. I accidentally purchased quite a few when the bulk dispenser went a bit haywire. This is so good as a salad or vegetable topping, too. I did reduce the salt as the nutritional yeast seems extra salty to me.

Thank you! I love all of your recipes.

Try this mozzarella on your cheese free pizza.... delish!

Not "derived from", but the fermentation process can create trace amounts of naturally occurring MSG. Those brands processed at a lower temperature have a lower occurrence of MSG, such as Frontier as opposed to Red Star. I'm extremely sensitive to MSG and have no issues with the Frontier brand, but Red Star left me with horrible headaches. Hope that helps.

Soaking will cause the cashews to turn to a paste when put in the food processor. :)

Yes Lordis, this is fine, as nutritional yeast has been "in-activated", so it does not react in the body like regular yeast.

I love your website and your recipes I find that I can use. I'm on the Phase 1 anti-fungal diet (Know The Cause with Doug Kaufmann) because I definitely have Fungus. Most of us do & don't realize our problems are caused by Fungus.

I had breast cancer, mastectomy (1996) then a couple yrs later had reconstructive surgery to get rid of implant but ended up having to have a small implant anyway. I found found from the plastic surgeon that I would be More Susceptible to Fungus because of the 'separation' of my skin. At time, I had no idea what she was really talking about - until about 10 years later. Scar-like area between the stitch area - got rid of it but it returned later along with Dry Scalp & on left side on upper forehead, left eyebrow & both ears (I thought it was just 'older age') Then I happen to see Doug Kaufmann on TV.

Will probably take awhile longer for me to need to stay on the Phase 1 diet but I need to get rid of this fungus. But I'm writing all this to warn females who have had Breast Implants including saline - that they are very prone toward fungus & if they break - Plus there are women who are sick & then find out the problem has been the implant & fungus. (on the above website - search for Breast Implant)

NO - candida is a Fungus and all yeast is a form of Fungus.

I'm currently on the Phase 1 diet (Know The Cause with Doug Kaufmann) and it works great. Go online & click on the tab for videos/shows (forgot) & search for Phase 1 - You won't need to go all out buying stuff.
Start with the basics - like Quinoa, veggies, No Sugar (very important because Fungus feeds on sugar - which also means No Starches because they turn to sugar)
Was tough giving up my regular Dr Pepper but I need to starve the fungus.
You can use the sweeteners - Xylitol and Stevia (but with nothing else unless sometime like the brand Sweet Leaf flavors).

This was so good, even my friend's 2 year-old liked it!
