PARMESAN CHEESE SUBSTITUTE FOR PASTA (VEGAN)



Parmesan Cheese Substitute for Pasta (Vegan) image

While this does'nt taste the same as parmesan, it adds a similar texture and extra flavor. With this, I don't even miss the parmesan! I wrote to salt to taste, but I think it needs to be salted generously, since parmesan cheese is rather salty. You can also use any other seasonings you like.
