About Vegan cashew cheese

Vegan Cashew Cheese is a creamy, dairy-free alternative made primarily from blended cashews, nutritional yeast, lemon juice, and seasonings. This plant-based spread, originating from the growing vegan cuisine movement, mimics traditional cheese in texture and taste. Thanks to its wholesome ingredients, cashew cheese is rich in healthy fats, vitamins, and minerals, including vitamin B12 when fortified with nutritional yeast. It's naturally cholesterol-free, making it a heart-healthy choice compared to dairy-based cheeses. High in protein and fiber, it supports satiety while being gentle on the digestive system due to its lack of lactose. However, its calorie density can be a consideration for portion control. Perfect as a dip, sauce, or spread, vegan cashew cheese is a versatile addition to plant-based and health-conscious meals worldwide.
