Food Allergy

vegan cheese

Anybody ever try Daiya?  How does it taste.  I would love to try mac-n-cheese (vegan) style for DD.

  • We use Daiya and buy products made with Daiya (Tofurkey pizza and Amy's Rice Mac N Cheese). I make my twins (21 months) pizza with Daiya and they usually eat all the "cheese" off first, so they seem to like it. I make mac n cheese with Daiya Cheese, So Delicious Coconut Milk Creamer, Fleischmann's unsalted sticks, and I try to add in some pureed butternut squash most times...they love it! I also think it's pretty good.

  • Its pretty good for what it is, reminds me of american cheese in that it melts really well.

  • I'm not in love with the shredded Daiya, but we love the cheddar style wedge.  The other night we make Quinoa Elbows with brocoli and melted Daiya wedge.  I added salt, pepper, powdered mustard to taste and some so delicious coconut milk...it was yummy.  I like the way it melts.  If you want a grilled cheese, you can get the cheddar wedge and slice it thin...it melts just like kraft.

  • We use daiya for mac and cheese. DS1 likes it, but he doesnt know anything else. I have personally never tasted it, mainly because it smells like dog food..lol!
