Homemade Vegan Cheese!

The title isn't a lie. We did it, we made the all mighty food of all foods. Ok, so its not proteins and fats from a cows boob, but it is healthy proteins and fats from Coconuts! I've used this for eggplant parmesan (soon to be posted) and GRILLED CHEESE!!! The faster you get yourself ready, the sooner you can have yourself a grilled cheese sandwich.
