my local whole foods just started carrying sheese…I got the mozzeralla I just tried it melted with tomato sauce on a pita…I too have a dairy allergy…I miss mac and cheese and pizza. I like follow your heart soy cheese also…I have learned to make a good mac and cheese with it. I will try some of the other flavors of sheese it seems to melt well. I will also try the pizza purses they look good.

question: can they be made ahead of time? I’m planning a small party of about 15 guests. i wanted toknow if i can make them 2-3 hrs ahead of serving? Maybe bake them 1/2 way & stick them back in? would that work out?

None of them are vegan or vegetarian lol, but its my party & i’ll serve what i want to!

PLEASE help!

This looks delicious! Although as someone who grew up just outside of New Haven,CT, I take issue with your statement that Chicago is the land of the perfect pizza pie! ;)

I agree with Louise Gray–I miss my cheese! I am not vegan but rather have been diagnosed with a dairy allergy. Not sure if I would have found the “dairy depravation” easier if I had chosen to become vegan rather than being thrust into making these choices. I have not tried the Sheese (yet), though I have tried the Teese. Eating it plain I found it had only a very faint soy taste, but it was very…”buttery” is the only word I can come up with. Not really mozzarella like, but not “gag” worthy either. Not too bad on pizza. I will try the Sheese in the hopes that I can occasionally have some mac and “cheese”!

I would also like to say this is a great site! Though this is the first time I have left a comment, I have come here often and find it informative and interesting! Thanks!

I am have decided to go vegan recently due to food allergy test results. I am a personal chef in Chicago and love cooking! What are some good vegan cookbooks? I have Skinny Bitch and the recipes seem easy enough, but there have to be others with easy recipes.

Made this tonight for dinner. Mine weren’t nearly as pretty, but they sure did taste awesome. It’s another one for the recipe box. Thank you!

These pizza purses themselves aren’t vegan, are they? I thought phyllo had egg in it…

Yup, they’re vegan! I wouldn’t use them if they weren’t :)

love your website. bookmarked it. checked out the vegan scones with clotted cream. getting ready for breakfast at wimbledon on 7/6/08. let me say about vegan cheese- it just plain sucks. there are great meat substitutes. when i have carnivore guests, they don’t know the difference. my dog won’t even eat the vegan cheese. now this new cheese that you mention, i have heard about, but i have not tried it yet. the biggest negative about this product is the $8.99 pricetag. i see at my local food co-op. if they give samples and i liked it, i might buy. you would think that with all the food technology available that someone would come up with a great cheese imitator. I am vegan but i miss my cheese!!!!!

Your blog is the greatest, i was tired of seeing unappetizing recipes for the vegan world. These pictures would even make my carnivore friend’s mouth water. I’ve only been vegan for about a year now, this blog confirms it’s such the way to go
