Parmesan Style Shaker Cheese | VEGAN Recipe

This might be my greatest creation to date. It takes all of my savory dishes to the next level!


I put it on macaroni and cheese.
I put it on tofu scramble.
I put it on avocado toast.
I put it on spaghetti.
I put it on EVERYTHING!

I've seen a few vegan youtube creators microplane brazil nuts onto pasta. It looks just like parmesan cheese and packs a hefty nutritional benefit most notably with how much selenium they contain.

I've also seen this done with cashews. They have more of a cheesiness to them which is why they're so commonly used in vegan cheese sauces. They also pack a ton of nutritional benefits into whatever dish they're used in.

More and more, I'm seeing people use hemp hearts as a topping to savory dishes; myself included! They also pack a lot of nutritional benefits into such tiny seeds.

And, most commonly, nutritional yeast is the vegan ingredient that adds a definite cheesy taste to anything. It is in almost every good recipe for vegan cheese. Not only does it add a ton of flavor, nutritional yeast is also...nutritious! It's loaded in B-vitamins and is even a complete protein, among all the other nutritional benefits.

If any one of these makes a great parmesan cheese alternative, why not combine them into a super food parmesan cheese!


I did just that.

It was magical.

I'm addicted.

I crave it.

I put it on everything.

You're welcome.
