Step-by-step

  • Bring several cups of water to a boil in a medium saucepan.
  • Place prepared potato, carrot, and onion into the boiling water, and cook until potatoes are fork tender, or about 10 minutes.
  • While your potatoes, carrot, and onion are cooking, place ½ cup water (preferably water from your pot of cooking/cooked vegetables), cashews, coconut milk, yeast flakes, lemon juice, salt, and garlic powder into your blender. Blend on high until everything is creamy smooth.
  • When potatoes are fork-tender, place potatoes, carrot, and onion into your blender--using a slotted spoon to avoid adding excess water to your cheese.
  • Blend everything on high until smooth.
  • You can use this cheese as is (pretty warm) to make your grilled cheese sandwiches, or you can place it in the fridge for a few hours or days to cool and thicken up slightly--which makes a less messy grilled cheese sandwich. If you're like me, you don't mind ooey gooey all-over-the-place cheese, and the hot stuff works just fine.
  • Slather your cheese sauce on 2 thick slices of bread, slap 'em together, and brush the outsides of your sandwich with either coconut oil (or other heat-safe oil of your choice) or vegan butter. (I use Earth Balance, generally.)
  • Place your sandwich in a preheated pan or griddle on medium heat. Usually, my sandwiches only need about 30 seconds to 1 minute on each side to be nice and crispy. Check your first sandwiches frequently, as they can burn quickly without warning.

    • As a busy mom of three, I'm always looking for quick and easy meals that are also healthy and delicious. These Vegan Grilled Cheese Sandwiches are the perfect solution! They're made with simple ingredients that I usually have on hand, and they're ready in just a few minutes.

    The best part about these sandwiches is that they're packed with flavor. The creamy, cheesy sauce is made with a blend of veggies, cashews, and coconut milk, and it's seasoned with just the right amount of spices. The sandwiches are also grilled to perfection, so they're crispy on the outside and gooey on the inside.

    My kids love these sandwiches, and I love that I can feel good about feeding them something that's both healthy and satisfying. They're the perfect meal for a busy weeknight or a lazy weekend lunch. Give them a try and see for yourself how delicious vegan grilled cheese sandwiches can be!
