So I have had this book called ‘The Ultimate Uncheese Cookbook: Delicious Dairy-Free Cheeses and Classic ‘Uncheese’ Dishes by Jo Stepaniak for quite some time. It wasn’t until today when a Friend ‘Kathleen’ brought the subject up that I remembered it. I wanted to share a recipe with her and thought I’d post it here to share with everyone! I have not made this yet but I plan on making it and posting piccys! So if you do make this please let me know in the comment section below what you think of it. Let me see a pic and tell me your lovely vegan story!
