If you are allergic to cashews then Please don’t make this. Ok Now lets get to the fact, although this is not a replica of regular cheese. This is up there with a point of deliciousness. This turned out a lot better than I thought. At first it’s just your basic vegan cashew cheese. But adding smoked paprika and nutritional yeast was a game changer.
This spread is so versatile. Great on crackers, as a dip or sandwich spread. It would even pair well with roasted stuffed mushrooms. Hmm actually now that’s not a bad idea. Ok look out for that recipe coming soon :).
Give it a shot and let me know what you think. You just need a little patience when pulsing and blending it. It is thick so you might have to open the blender and press it back down towards the blade a few times. Just add a tablespoon or 2 of water at a time. You want it to be thick and pasty and not runny.
