Goaty Cashew Cheeze

It’s crazy how much this tastes like goat cheese! I’m always amazed at how you can make “cheese” out of cashews and sauerkraut… sounds gross but it’s really good! You can use this cheeze on anything – pizza, salads, sandwiches, etc. I added this to my BBQ Tempeh Wrap with Goaty Cheeze today and it was awesome!

Ingredients

This recipe is from… again, Melomeals: Vegan For $3.33 A Day.

Goaty Cashew

  1. 1 c cashews or almonds
  2. 1 c sauerkraut
  3. 2 T miso
  4. 2 t Dijon
  5. 1 t Umeboshi vinegar or apple cider vinegar
  6. Pinch salt (optional)


Method:

  1. Blend very well in either a high power blender or food processor
  2. If you have a yogurt maker, culture overnight
  3. If you don’t have a yogurt maker, let sit covered for 2 days – ON THE COUNTER! You can put it in the fridge if you are worried but I didn’t and it came out great!

Garlic Kale Hummus

I’m always thinking about how I can make more spreads to go on our veggie sandwiches/wraps. Plain or Red Pepper Hummus is generally our go-to spread but I’m learning to venture out a little. I’m always looking for ways to get more healthy greens into my daily diet so I came up with this “Kale Garlic Sandwich Spread”. (I’ll go into detail about kale soon – all the details you need!)

First I start with one bunch of kale – I like to use Lacinato Kale the most, also called “Black Kale” or “Elephant Kale. There are two other kinds of kale – red and green. The red and green look similar except for the color. They are a little more prickly than the lacinato and provide a little different texture. I used green kale for this recipe because that’s all I had on hand.

I also love garlic… who doesn’t!?!

I threw this little mixture together yesterday and it came out pretty good!

Kale Spread

* 1 bunch of kale – I used green kale

* 4-6 cloves garlic

* Juice of half a lemon

* Splash of bean-cooking liquid (or water)

* 1 can white beans – drained

* Salt & Pepper to taste

I mixed all these ingredients in my food processor until smooth, scraping the sides along the way.

I wonder if my toddler will eat this on pasta or toast with avocado? Hmmm… I”m going to try that tomorrow!
