Newly Vegan, Anyone know a good "cheese"?

I've been vegetarian for almost four years, and have decided to take that extra step and try out a vegan diet. Bought "Rice Dreams" milk (it's delicious), but I need help finding and affordable, easy to find vegan cheese. So recommended away :)



oh, and are most Morningstar Farms products vegan?

A bit confused on that one :/

Most Morningstar stuff is NOT vegan, a few things are...I think the Chick'n or Steak strips are.



Try Follow Your Heart Vegan Gourmet soy cheese in mozzerella, monterey jack, or cheddar. The thinner you shred it the better it melts, and it's at health food stores.
Holland and Barratt (are you in Britain) - do some really good vegan cheeses I think. I'm pretty sure they're vegan.

and also Redwood foods...

The best commercial vegan cheeses are Dr.Cow (hard to find- I order it from Pangea) and Sheeze. Most of the grocery brands are fairly dreadful.



You can make your own, too- Jo Stepaniak's cookbook "The Uncheese Cookbook" is full of good recipes.
The problem with commercially available "vegetarian" cheezes is that they often contain non-vegan products. You have to become an expert at reading ingredients. My nose and stomach are expert at finding non-vegan cheez ingredients, so I finally gave up trying, for the most part, with one exception:



If you want to just buy a good vegan cheese, go to

You can also look at the book The Uncheese Book, by Joan Stepaniak. This is a vegan "cheese" cookbook (for raw vegans who may be reading, most of the recipes can be easily converted to raw)



Charlie Trotter's book, Raw, contains a really good recipe for cashew cheese, which can be made easily over three days in even the most un-prepared kitchen -- you only need a food processor. This cheez, which is very like cream cheese can be altered adding spices and herbs, to get a cheez very much like Boursin.



Ani Phyo's book Ani's Raw Kitchen gives some interesting quick to make cheeze recipes.



My all time favorite cheez recipe is for a "cheddar cheez"

juice of one lemon

1/3 large red or orange red bell pepper

1 T onion powder

1 t sea salt (or celtic salt)

1 T chili seasoning (optional)

Water to the level of the other ingredients in the blender.



Blend all ingredients to smooth. This will give a creamy cheez which can be used a dip or spread, or even a salad dressing.



(if you want a thicker cheez, reduce the amount of water to the minimum which allow you to process the ingredients to smooth).
Galaxy Nutritional Foods Make RICE Cheese has no soy, gluten, casein or lactose. Even melts!

My daughter buys some nice Almond Cheeses for her family that they like real well. I have not tried them because I'm allergic to almonds.

There are also Soy Cheeses that are decent.
