Who says that vegans can’t eat parmesan? I haven’t had Italian parmesan in quite some time, but quite frankly I don’t miss it whatsoever. Compared to the traditional cheese topping, vegan cashew parmesan is much more flavorful and nutritious. Its nutty, cheesy flavor takes any pasta dish to new heights and will have your friends asking for seconds.

This “parmesan” can be whipped up in seconds and stored in an airtight container for up to a month.
