Macadamia Nut Cheese

I have often stopped eating dairy products even before embracing a vegan diet because like most people I find it difficult to digest and it doesnt seem all that good for me despite what the Dairy Board would have me think.  I then miss the quality of flavour and texture that cheese brings to a dish so have been experimenting with various recipes for nut cheese.

Here is one I like and it has a lot of the  tasty qualities of cheese but with good fats. – good fats!!!

Nut Cheese

2c macadamias
1c pine nuts
2 T lemon juice
2 T nutritional yeast/ brewers yeast
2 yellow bell peppers
2 T fresh chopped parsley
1 T fresh chopped thyme
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp tumeric optional

Process all ingredients together adding a little  water as possible.

Use where ever you used to have cheese.

A creamed cheese can be obtained by adding more water and blending until creamy.
