Cashew cheese is great. I just made a vegan frosting for a client last night, Grind cashews, dates, and coconut milk in the processor until you get a frosting consistency It was good.

I really like playing with some of the creative raw recipes out there. I’m going to give the slicable version a try soon.

I’ve been thinking about trying my hand at homemade paneer. Maybe nut cheese would be a good first step.

Sue, I ALWAYS vote for local over organic. So much of what you can get at the store that is “organic” is mass produced and pretty much factory farmed. I like supporting my local economy and farmers more than some mass organic farm in Chile that has to fly their food here. And don’t get me started on those vendors at the farmer’s market who cart in veggies in retail plastic…that is so NOT the point of a farmers market – I can get that at the grocery!!!

Yes, Nina, pretty much!

Ivy! My grandfather used to make sausage and it was THE BEST.

Kate – I have never used agar either, but here is a link to find out more about what it is: http://dairyfreecooking.about.com/od/dairyfreeglossary/g/AgarAgar.htm

Thank you so much Brittany! You are so sweet to say that! You know I love your blog too – and your quick wit! I don’t know how well I am going to do with this garden resolution, but I am going to try!

Which one did you get Deb?

Now I am nervous, Peter because I don’t have space at all…I am literally not going to have a floor on my porch to accomplish this goal! LOL!

That is a great idea, Catherine…right now we have been growing tomatoes and herbs in containers…but I am sure there are lots of other space saving ideas that could be found.

Thanks Soma and Welcome!

Wow Toontz! You are lucky!

Hey Jen-
Happy New Year to you and Roberto. Great goals for the coming year! The raw nut cheese sounds yummy. I too, have a very small yard. Did a little better this summer with our tomatoes and herbs, but would love a “real” garden. I am very lucky that I have a mother that still loves to can and freeze and “put up” fruits and veggies, and that she is willing to share with us.

Those are definitely goals worth going for! How about container gardening? There are several books/articles about it. One plus is that you can move them around according to weather and space?
Thoughtful post, great recipe! Makes me inspired!
