VEGAN CHEESE FOR QUESADILLAS

One of the main ingredients to make traditional quesadilla is cheese. In order to make this Mexican-inspired recipe vegan we have to find suitable cheese alternatives to enjoy this delicious food. So, if you are missing eating quesadillas you can try making this cheesy vegan quesadillas recipe. Moreover, you have two options, you can prepare your own homemade vegan cheese or you can get store-bought vegan cheese. For this recipe, I used store-bought cheese, but you can use the one you prefer.

VEGAN CHEESE ALTERNATIVES

• Vegan cheese sauce.
• Cashew cheese*.
• Vegan Mexican cheese.
• Vegan mozzarella.

Additionally, you can also use vegan parmesan cheese. Although this vegan cheese won’t melt it can add a cheesy delicious flavor too. Also, if you want to make vegan quesadillas nut-free bear in mind that this vegan cheese and the cashew cheese are made with nuts. If you want to make some of the vegan cheese options listed here, just click on the one you like to get the cheese recipe.

*This vegan cashew cheese will require additional time to make, as you have to soak cashews for around 2hr and you will need a high-speed food processor to make it.

GLUTEN FREE QUESADILLAS

Although these vegan quesadillas were made with regular vegan wheat tortillas/flour tortillas, you can always make this recipe using other options; such as gluten-free tortillas. Furthermore, you can use corn tortillas. Lastly, you can buy store-bought vegan gluten-free tortillas or make your own.
