Great in an open face sandwich with tomato and onion, or use in quesadillas or nachos or as a layer on a plant based burger.

Smokey Cheddar Cheese From Molly Patrick

  • 1/3 cup rolled oats (not instant)
  • 3½ tablespoons nutritional yeast
  • 3½ tablespoons sunflower seeds
  • 1 2/3 tablespoons tapioca flour
  • 1¼ teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1¼ teaspoons onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon smoked paprika powder
  • ¼ teaspoon regular paprika powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon turmeric powder

Add all ingredients to a high-speed blender. Blend until a fine powder, about 20 seconds.

Then add the following ingredients to the powder in the blender, and blend until super smooth:

  • 1½ cups filtered water
  • 2 2/3 tablespoons red bell paper, diced
  • 1½ tablespoons pimento, drained
  • 2 teaspoons white or yellow miso
  • 1¼ teaspoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1¼ teaspoons lemon juice
  • 1¼ teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • ¾ teaspoon coconut aminos
  • Pinch ground black pepper
  • 1 drop liquid smoke (optional)

After blending, pour mixture into a saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring frequently for 6 – 9 minutes. It becomes thicker and thicker. Stir constantly as it thickens until it is thick and gooey.
