the “cheese” is freeze dried tofu, cashew butter, corn starch, nutritional yeast, soy milk, and vinegar
i live in nyc so i’m expecting the nypd to break down my door and arrest me for committing a hate crime against the entire Italian diaspora any minute now
I’m generally a lover of all food and a typical mistake I see is people trying make non-vegan dishes vegan.
There’s just no substituting real cheese on a hot dish. It’s just one of those things.
However there are plenty of great vegan and vegetarian dishes out there. And in my personal opinion, the simpler they are, the better they taste. No reason to bend over backwards to emulate cheese.
my reason was i wanted pizza at 3am
You have to admire someone who wants pizza at 3am and actually does it from “scratch”. I aspire to be like that. I just eat 45 olives.
This is still making pizza from scratch, you just made some substitutions and cut some corners.
But psychoactive substances played no part in this decision, I’m sure.
I can respect that.
I used to make a vegan lasagna that defies this claim. I am not sure I still have the recipe though
[X] Doubt (because of ‘vegan cheese’)
Didn’t use vegan cheese.
You replied to a comment about vegan cheese which seemed to imply your lasagna had vegan cheese.
Without cheese it is a layered pasta dish that should have some other name.
I can see how you’d think that but I specifically meant that it wasn’t bad just because it was an analog to lasagna. I don’t need you to believe me that it was good and I am not particularly concerned with what you think it should be called
If you didn’t use fake cheese then I am very inclined to believe it was good. There are tons of vegan dishes that I enjoy, just not the ones that have ingredients pretending to be non-vegan ingredients.
