When you go vegan, your definition of what you consider “cheese” is stretched pretty far. This vegan cheese recipe doesn’t exactly taste like real cheese, but it makes a great substitute for cheese on dishes like pizza, mac n’ cheese, casseroles, tortillas, and a whole bunch more. Most importantly, it is really easy to make and doesn’t require any special ingredients. Feel free to go crazy with the spices and adjust it to your liking!

Georgian Eggplant with Walnuts (Badridzhani Nigvsit) – Vegan, GF
I discovered this eggplant recipe while in Georgia (the country, not the state!) and now have a favorite food.
