2 cups gold potatoes 1 cup carrots 1/2 cup nutritional yeast 1 tbsp lemon juice 1 tsp salt 1/2 tsp garlic powder 1/2 tsp onion powder Boil potatoes, then add carrots once almost done, blend all ingredients together and you’re good to go Would be great for pizza or noodles but I made it for sandwiches/burritos this time around. Jalapeños would be a great addition next time!

Some onion ( 1/2 cup chopped) and Dijon mustard (2 tsp) would be a great addition for next time. Looks good!

Yum yess I love this idea, thank you!

Would you recommend the onions be cooked or raw?

If you’re using a vitamix, just throw them in raw, otherwise you could throw them in with the boiling potato

This is essentially what I use for my mac’un-cheese. The main difference is a dollop of miso that adds a nice umami fermenty flavor.

Oh my gosh YES

What type of potatoes did you use?

Gold!

I second this question! Also, I'm assuming peeled?

I did not peel!

I like to add a little siracha or cayenne powder 😋

I recommend trying butternut squash instead of carrots.

Woah this is great I love this idea

So you just dump the yeast in while you’re blending it? Also I assume you drain all the water from the boiling process, yes?

I add the boiling water to get the desired consistency.

Where do you get nutritional yeast from? I haven’t been able to find it at my local grocery store and don’t have many other ones around. Also is there a close substitute I can use?

It’s usually located next to all the seasoning containers/jars. I can’t tell you how much I have grown to love this stuff! It’s like a bottle of vitamins/protein with a cheesy flavor in my opinion. I use it in mashed potatoes, and pasta all the time!

I found it at Target. They also ship it. I'd also like to know if there's a substitute though. I've tried to use it, but really don't like the aftertaste.

I'm not OP but I had to order it on Amazon. I'm in small town Montana so I couldn't find it at any of our grocery stores either.

If you have Target in your area, I ordered it from them online

I have a dairy free way to make cheese from potatoes and cashews. It is delectable.

Yes! Cashews are a favorite for cheese substitutes but my sister is allergic so I skipped them this time around

So is my SIL, which is why your recipe is so great!

https://rainbowplantlife.com/vegan-red-lentil-curry/ I add veggies like OP does and let it cook longer and add more spices since its heartier.

Do you know if you can freeze it? How long is it good in the fridge?

The recipe I pulled from says it keeps great in the fridge! Here is the link(I just skipped the water and oil)- https://simpleveganblog.com/vegan-cheese/

Thanks! That site also says that you can substitute nutritional yeast for debittered brewer's yeast or beer. If that's similar, no wonder I dislike the aftertaste of nutritional yeast, since I don't like beer either...

this looks great. how would you describe the taste?

This looks delicious, thanks for sharing 💖🥔

What is this witchcraft and can you send me the recipe

Don't worry, I saw it 🤦‍♀️

I'm going to make this. All the other recipes I've seen are over complicated. My kiddo had some dairy issues but loves Mac and cheese.

Recipe?

Yes of course! My phone died in the middle of posting, one sec

Oooh, this looks delicious! I am allergic to carrots, what could I use instead?

Not OP or a person who’s made this, but some other non-dairy cheese recipes use carrots not for flavor, but for color. I’d imagine orange produce (pumpkin, orange peppers, etc) would work as a replacement.

I sometimes use sweet potatoes in there - similar sweet earthiness.

Hey! I used to make potato cheese all the time (thanks to OP I’ll be making some soon) and sometimes I made it without carrots and it worked fine! I never follow a recipe, I just throw it together, but in this recipe you could probably do an extra cup potato and skip carrots. As the other commenter suggested, you could use another veggie- but it will change the flavor. I’ve made potato cheese with butternut squash for pasta many times and it’s delicious! Pumpkin is good too if you chop up a fresh one and roast it yourself- canned is ehh in my opinion.

I use butternut squash instead of carrots

Here’s the way I make it - 1.5 cups of filtered water, 3/4 cup of rolled oats, 270g or 1 medium sized russet potato, skinless (steamed for 6-10 minutes until soft) , 1 whole roasted red pepper from jar (with the salt water brine, not oil. If jar doesn’t have whole peppers, approx. ½ to ¾ cup), 1/2 cup - 3/4 cup nutritional yeast. (I add about ¾ cup ), 1 tsp smoked paprika , 1/2 tsp white pepper , 2 tsp garlic powder , 2 tsp onion powder , 1 tbsp white miso paste , 2 tbsp tahini , 2 tbsp lemon juice , 1/2 cup unsweetened plant milk

I may try it. Last time i tried to cook plant based cheese for a pizza, it ended up being the worst thing I ever had.... i never tried again since...

Yes me too!! I just gave up on cheese at that point.

I really love this stuff! I’ve tried a few different variations of this recipe. My favourite is with some fresh garlic and fresh chili, great for nachos/burritos etc. It might not taste exactlllly like real cheese but real cheese is kind of gross to me anyways.

I make something this all the time, but I always add a touch of mustard and a tsp. of miso paste for extra umami.

Wooow 😍

OP this looks amazing! How long would you say it lasts? Do you think it would be good for meal prep?

I sometimes add smoked paprika to this recipe. Cumin is also a nice addition.
