    Vegan Cheese Recipes come in all shapes and sizes and a new recipe is being worked on every day. Lucky us! 

    It is wonderful that there are so many talented recipe creators around and they have shared their best cheese recipes with us. Right here in this collection.

    You really should try them all. For instance, there are a few nacho type recipes and a few feta cheese recipes but each one is different from the other. Don't let one pass you by. 

    Do you have a favorite type of cheese from the old days that you would like to see recreated? Let me know in the comments and I'll give it a try. I'm working on a sliceable Havarti type right now.

      Thank you so much Mary! I appreciate your kind words so much. I don't have these recipes in a book. They are all from different bloggers and the recipes live on their pages so you actually have to click through to get the recipe. I know what you mean though. It is a pretty darn good collection.
