This recipe is dairy, nut and soy free and can be used in a variety of recipes. I consider this to be more of a "nacho" style cheese, rather than a specific type such as cheddar, mozzarella, parmesan, etc. Yields about 2 cups.

Hi everyone, thanks for watching!!
I just wanted to add that you CAN change the oil to water ratio. If you are looking for a recipe with less fat, feel free to add only a bit of oil, or none at all! Just make sure to compensate with more water c: I find it is best to use oil if you want to later use the cheese in something that is baked (such as mac and cheese), because it won't dry out as much as opposed to using only water.
Can I omit the nutritional yeast? If not , what is the alternative?
@@leenaahmed4526 No, don't omit it. There is no alternative. That's the 'cheese' flavor.
Hey, so the video says 1/4 cup nutritional, but the site says 1/2. Which do you use typically?
I cannot believe the smart vegans still are using oil. As Dr Campbell says....NO OIL!
@@LarryRichelli a little oil won't hurt.....certainly not as bad as beef tallow, used in the past in some recipes
INGREDIENTS:
• 1/2 cup carrots
• 1 cup peeled potatoes
• 1/4 cup water
• 1/3 cup olive oil
• 2 tsp lemon juice
• 1/4 cup nutritional yeast
• 1/4 tsp garlic, onion, paprika
• dash of mustard powder
• 1 tsp salt
INSTRUCTIONS:
-- Cut the carrots and potatoes into smaller chunks. Boil them for about 8-12 minutes, until soft and can be pierced with a fork.
-- While the vegetables are boiling, prepare the remaining ingredients by adding them all to a bowl and whisking them until combined.
-- Last, pour all of the prepared ingredients into a blender. Blend everything on low to medium until everything is well incorporated and smooth.
:)
Thanks!
Thank you for the ingredient list and instructions. 👍
Amazing recipe
Thank you so much! The audio cuts out when she starts the recipe. You’re very much appreciated!

I made this last night and can say this tastes almost exactly like the kind of cheese that the kids like on macaroni and cheese. It was very good. I serves it on broccoli and cauliflower. I don't think anyone would know it wasn't the real thing. I can see making this into a 'cheese' soup that everyone will love. Thanks a million.
I agree with you. I saw this recipe a few weeks ago but thought it was too good to be true.
wow that's amazing. thanks for making this comment!
OMG! I accidentally made this cheese tonight and it is the bomb. I originally want to make cheese but had some potatoes and carrots that I needed to use up and found this recipe and since I had all the other ingredients I decided to go for it. Much to my surprise, and delight, it turned out better than expected. Kudos to you, thank you for this
I made macaroni & cheese tonight using 1x this sauce & about 1 cup raw elbows (~2 1/2 cups cooked). It was awesome! Used 1/4 cup sunflower oil, organic red potatoes (peeled), Trader Joe's smoked paprika. Great flavor & texture like nacho cheese. Thank you for a new favorite!
OMG MAC AND CHEESE the store vegan mac is so expensive, maybe making it with this would be cheaper.
Just tried this last night. Absolutely amazing. Best cheese sauce I’ve tried since becoming vegan last year. I’ll be making this a LOT! Thanks so much!
I just made this for Father Day. It was absolutely amazing. This is the BEST vegan cheese recipe I've ever tried. The taste is so much like cheddar cheese. I'm storing my leftover to use for other cheesy-tasting vegan meals. Yeah!
Thanks for making this video honestly! I been trying so hard to find a vegan cheese with no nuts 🥜 😘
WOW! Just made this and it looks exactly like nacho cheese and tastes great. I just didn’t have onion and mustard powder but still came out so good !!! Thank you!
Looks amazing! I'm so making this soon! Thank you for sharing!
This is the first thing I made on my new Vitamix blender received 1/5/2018 and the cheese is amazing and probably very healthy. Thank you for the video.
I love cheese but I get ear infections from eating it. I am also allergic to soy, so this is just a perfect solution. Thank you very much for sharing this!! =;)
I love this recipe .. i tried it and I can't get enough of it
I made this last night and it was very good. This recipe is definitely a keeper.
WHOA! I JUST made this after having tried over the last 2 yrs making various nut cheeses and cauliflower cheeses from videos online that were decent and so-so at best. I have been looking for a really awesome cheese substitute that was plant based (nut free for days when I want to omit fat) and this was easy to make (I'm not a chef for sure) and THIS came out delicious!!! I omitted the olive oil and replaced that with water. I can close my eyes and imagine it is the real thing. The consistency is close to be like melted cheese and the flavor is so very darn close. I put it over cucumber noodles! YUM! Thank you!
add salsa, cumin, and a lot of minced garlic when blending and omg my non vegan cheese loving sister couldn't tell the difference
How much salsa??
wait the salsa makes it taste cheesier??
@@an6350 Or you might wanna try pickle brine. The lactic acid in it gives it the tanginess and depth (but I'd say the sauce itself is already very nice and omnivore-approved)
I have been meaning to get back here and comment on this. YES! THIS IS THE ABSOLUTE BEST VEGAN CHEESE SAUCE IN THE HISTORY OF EVER!!! Thank you for posting this!!! I have tweaked it a bit for our own personal tastes and whatnot. I 86'd the carrots. I feel like it adds a bitterness to it. I just used 1.5C of potatoes. Cut the lemon juice in half as well. I also did reduce the olive oil to 4 TBSP. Not much of a difference but it makes it easier to figure out the math on the saturated fat lol. Also, I use a heaping TSP of salt. In transferring the sauce from the bowl to my pasta, I dropped a bit on my shoe. Needless to say, my shoe was........DELICIOUS!!! Oh! And a timesaver I use now is spuds. Boxed potato flakes and no wait for the boiling to be done! (If you do this, the total water needed in the blender is 1 & 3/4C.)
Indeed.
Carrots are actually sweet tasting if you peel them.
great video thanks, recogising the great music was doing my head in, then i realised it was an adaptation itself of a Roy Ayres track You Send Me. so thanks for talking me back to the 70's also
I just made this after seeing how easy the recipe was and I audibly said "Wow!". Thanks for the recipe.
Oh my gosh just watching this, I'm salivating. 😋
I’ve been trying various vegan cheese recipes for the last 3+ years but never found one that fully satisfied me. I’ve got a rule not to taste these cheeses for 3 days to allow the flavors to fully mingle. Today was day 3 and I have to say I was STUNNED at how good it tasted. You really hit a home run with this recipe Ms. Potato. Definitely a keeper. I can’t thank you enough. 💗
Should the cheese be left in the refrigerator?
@@Akshayhaha Yes, definitely.
Very good recipe. I used it as a nacho cheese and put some pickled jalapenos in it. If you do this, make sure you hold off on adding salt until after you've blended it and tasted it. Mine was a little salty because I didn't but still very good. Not TOO salty, just a little more salty than you would expect.
Love it love it love it. I cooked this for my non-vegan friends and they like it a lot. It's amazing how simple the ingredients are. Thank you so much!
Well, I had some olive bread that I made yesterday, didn't feel like cooking at all, and just sat there watching YT videos and wondering what could I put on my bread, feeling completely uninspired; then I saw this, got curious and made it, not expecting more than something quick and rather bland - and, hey presto! Along with some fresh, sliced tomatoes, it became a heavenly, thick, soul-food, cheesy dipping sauce for my bread and a very simple, quick and delicious supper! This is definitely going to be on my menu often, and tomorrow evening is a movie evening with my daughter, so this will be on the table again... Thank you for this unexpected pleasure, as all great discoveries, this one is simple and fantastic too! Also, more of similar recipes, please! Greetings from Switzerland
Just made this. So good!!
Yes..... this looks great.. a must try for sure..
Wow!!
Looks amazing, looking forward to meeting this very soon thank you so much for sharing❤
Girl you did yo thang with this! Thank you.
Thank you for this! I have made this for mac n cheese several times now, and my family loooooves it. And all the veggies... :)
This is literally the best cheese/vegan cheese sauce I’ve ever had!! Like seriously unreal how good it is! I used it on a broccoli and rice recipe! Unbelievable
I just made this and it’s hands down the best I’ve tried.
Ok , was looking for a low cal cheese sauce as opposed to my usual nut sauce and this is outstanding. I subbed water for the oil too. Delicious! Will definitely make again and again!
I'm new to your channel and new vegan... Thanks for sharing you make it very easy and quick
I just made this, it absolutely 💯 delicious! I tried another one a few weeks ago with cauliflower and butternut squash it was ok, more like a soup. This has the consistency of nacho cheese. I may need to make another batch. Thank you for sharing this, I have a lactose intolerance and this will make my tummy happy.
Add two jalapeño peppers to this, OMG! Amazing!!!!!
Oh yes spice it up. I even did one with some peanut butter in it. Off the charts. You get your PEANUT fix with a whole lotta other goodness and less fat.
My new favorite !!!! Thank you ❤️
Great job, looks delicious!
Thank you for sharing.
🎉👏🎉 Delicious, easy, simple ingredients! Thank you so much!🎉
Just made it and it was good!! Forgot the lemon at first and taste great without but I did ended up adding the lemon juice and was good too...
I'm going to definitely try this! Thanks.
I did something similar the other day. Instead of powder onion and garlic I roasted 3 garlic cloves and half an onion which helped with the flavour a ton. ... I also added some almond milk (half a cup) just a tablespoon of oil and 3 tablespoons of water. Was fantastic! 😃
I haven't heard that song in years I like the Roy Ayers version you send me. BTW thanks for the recipe I'll definitely give it a try.💕
Thank you! I‘ll try this - omg it looks delicious! 😍
I boiled mine in veggie broth and used the water for the mix.. yummy. I used it for a sandwich after making a buffalo jackfruit. This cheese works great. In my next batch I added vegan chorizo to it for a dip. Omgsh yummy
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! So delicious, I was craving nachos!
I like the Roy Ayers “You Send Me” playing in the background. Trying this recipe!
Love this so good .
by far my favorite one so far. especially because my son is allergic to nuts so this recipe is perfect for him.
I’m sorry but boo you did ya thing with this cheese I can’t thank you enough.. send positive vibes your way ♥️
Does it taste good?
yeah is it good?
vegan cheese always tastes weird
You are bae!!I'm stealing all of you're ideas ❤️❤️
Good recipe. Great sense of humor.
I think I'm gonna love this recipe, so thanks ❤
So delicious, thank you 🙌🏻
Just watched your video! I have been a vegetarian for about 10 years. Just a few weeks ago I tried my hand at becoming a vegan and it's SO hard because all I miss is cheese! Thank you for this recipe! I will definitely try it! And you are hilarious! 😂
Ima try this ,but try adding earth balance butter & sauted onions in the mix, yumm cant wait, thanks!
Thanks heaps PPrincess for this video! Finally found the right recipe for my homemade cheese! Cheers!
I made this recipe and it is truly good. Easy to make..thanks!
Thank you! This helped so much and was really good!
I made this without the carrots cuz I didn't have any. It was amazing
I love this recipe so simple and not too many ingredients . I love your username i am definitely subscribing.
oh thank you so much, I'm happy you enjoyed it! ☺️
I’m trying this tomorrow omg. Definitely the best looking vegan cheese recipe i’ve seen in a long time.
This recipe really rocks! I have made it several times and added a few spices at times for pazzaz; but why i am so excited to comment today is this: I use the sauce for many things, mac cheese among others, most times when making mac and cheese I do the noodles in the microwave and add the cheese later or when the noodles are hot and enjoy. If I have leftover noodles I usually store them without the sauce incase I decide I want the leftover noodles a different way, but today I decided to quickly use my cold noodles in the fridge and add some cold leftover cheese sauce to the top and microwave to reheat. I accidentally pressed 2mins which was too long cuz I only had a very small amount in the bowl...the cheese looked a little 'overdone' but when I mixed and ate it it was even more authentic!! It really really seemed to stick a little to the bowl and my fork etc...just like old fashioned cheese did!! so now I know to reheat the cheese a lil longer for mac and cheese and bam!!! even better than before...which was a huge surprise considering just how great the cheese sauce is!!
What other seasonings did you add for pizzazz? I loved this cheese but want to "spice" it up or make it pop more with flavor.
i just made this and it was pretty good. Definitely would recommend
But does it actually taste like cheese or is it just a good flavor? I want to use it for Rotel dip
I freakin luv these vegan tutorials!!! Thanks ea one that has uploaded
Sun TV show is a very
Thank you for sharing your recipe
'Frickin' awesome' - yep! She nailed it and so did I this morning when I tried this for the first time. Bam! Delish! Thanks.
Je l'ai essayée et j'ai bien aimé. Thank you for the recipe.
Hey. Can't wait to try the recipe. Great video! Well edited & good sound. Next I'd tackle lighting and color grading. Keep up the great work! Can't wait to see where you go.
thank you! I definitely want to improve the quality of my videos, but honestly, I don't even know where to start with all that 🙈
@@Sarah-Mae-Andrews watch some TH-cam videos. I like "primiere gal" . You're already doing great! A lot of new creators can be boring, but you've really got the delivery and pacing of your videos to a good place. I stayed engaged. Just keep going and keep improving bit by bit and the content quality will go from good to great :).
Ough my God You are exactly right.!!!!!!
Fantastic absolutely love it.
This is perfect for me as I am allergic to dairy, nuts, eggs, soya, and sesame! Thank you!!!
Replace the nuts with quinoa and lentils and I'm the same! It's nice to finally find recipes with things I can eat! I am going to replace the fresh potatoes and carrots with canned ones though. I hate cooking so that will save some time and effort.
It was the best!!!!I we loved it
Thank you for this. I'm going to try it.
👀👀🙌🏾🙌🏾👏🏾👏🏾👍🏾👍🏾❤️❤️❤️👀👀👀THIS CAME OUT TO BE THE BEST VEGAN CHEESE IVE EVER TRIED TO MAKE OMG👀👀👀 THANK YOU!!!!! ITS SO DELICIOUSLY!!! GOOD!!!! IM A TRUE FAN THANK YOU!!!!! SO MUCH!!!!
Yasss girl thanks for this video
Brilliant! Always looking for healthy and humane cheeses as 1. I love animals and 2. I have a family history of cancer and need to avoid all the estrogen, progesterone and casein in dairy. Can't wait to make this--Thanks so much!
An absolutely delicious recipe, well done. It will stop my cheese cravings it is so good.
Thanks for sharing I m gonna try dis sauce cause trying to stay away from dairy foods
The Bomb!! Looks good too.
I add green olives and some of the juice to my cheese in the blender it adds good flavor!
Thank You so much dearest 🌹
You’re such an inspiration 🥰
Be Blissful Eternally 🙏😇🌈
FINALLY!!!! An amazing Vegan cheese recipe with all the ingredients I have in my home and very easy to make!
I have seen so many recipes with 20 ingredients. I immediately clicked out. No thanks!
hi :) does it actually taste like cheese?
Thank you so much i love your vegan cheese
Looks absolutely delicious can't wait to try it thank you
Looks delicious and easy!
I’ve just made this sauce. Fantastic. So delicious. Better than the real cheesy one. 🥰
Can also try adding some tapioca starch, 1-2 Tbl for added creaminess and or soaked cashews 1/2 cup, looks pretty perfect as is, but just to play with texture, also red sweet bell pepper for added color and vit C, if you really want to get fancy. Throw it back into the pot and add a couple Tbl of agar agar and keep stirring till it thickens into a cheddar cheese ball. I love adding my cheeses to those plastic baking molds in any number of cool forms… roses, dragons, cute little piglets, refrigerate and turn onto a cool late, Viola!!,
I will try, thank you
That looks amazing 👏🏿
looks really good
I made it and it's delicious
Thank you so much!!!
Diagnosed with high cholesterol so I subbed the oil for a quarter cup of raw cashews and pecans. Also boil In an onion with the potatoes and carrots and add some garlic. It is quite yummy. Even better when I make a caso dip from it.
Yum!
I'm going to try it! I taste better than the one I make because I never use oil or salt in my vegan recipes
lovely recipe for my son with multiple food allergies. Just wondering if its suitable to freeze?
All of these ingredients are ok to freeze. You'll lose the smooth consistency when you freeze as the molecular structure changes, so blend it again when thawed to achieve a creamy spread again.
Awesome...thank you
Looks good must try thank you
Awesomeness!!!
This is delicious! Yum. Didn't have carrots..still came out pretty 👍
I tried your recipe and it was good: taste, texture and appearance however the olive oil is too strong so nx time I will use a healthy oil that's tasteless any suggestions?
I also used sweet potatoes instead of carrots and potatoes. Thanks so much bc I'm trying to stay away from cashews which most recipes require.😇😋✌🏽
