Hi guys!
I’m a bit disoriented writing this post. Our family took a trip to visit grandparents and extended family in Newfoundland. I’ll be sharing info about our trip, including our vegan joys and challenges, very soon.
But first, I’m looking for your help!
I want you to help me choose a recipe to blog. Specifically, a cheese trap recipe.

Since The Cheese Trap released, I’ve been wanting to blog another recipe from the book. The recipes are far more than cheese replacements. In fact, some of my very favorite recipes in this collection have nothing to do with cheese replacements.
I filmed this clip to share some recipe highlights from The Cheese Trap:
Now, I’d love your help in choosing a Cheese Trap recipe. Watch the vid, and let me know what recipe speaks to you the most. You choose which recipe I blog!

Here’s a rundown of some of my top choices, but do share if you have another you’d like to see featured:
- Chocolate Lovers’ Banana Bread
- Potato Tofu Scramble (no cumin! – see vid!) 😬
- Sour Cream
- Tofu “Ricotta”
- Greek Chickpeas
- Nacho Dip (also forgot to mention this one, pictured above)
- Sesame Quinoa Salad
- Mango and Salsa Bean Salad (I didn’t mention this one, but also a fave)
- Oil-Free Croutons
- Cream of Broccoli Soup
- Mushroom Chili
- Chickpea Tacos
- Pistachio Pesto
- Italian “Meatballs”
- Omega Burgers
- Chocolate-Peanut Butter Gelato
- Chocolate Macaroons
And, here are some additional photos of The Cheese Trap (credit to PCRM):

So, what’s it gonna be, kids? Which recipe should I blog next from The Cheese Trap? Help me choose!

Hi Dreena – I vote for the burger recipe! I am desperate for a good burger for the summer barbecue events. Something I can do to help show the meat heavy family that another concept exists and is healthy and delicious!
Love your work – thank you so much for all you do.
I need the sour cream recipe too!
Sue says
I vote for the Nacho dip. I had the hardest time giving up cheese and still sometimes cave. If I had a cheese subsitute that really tasted good, that would sure help.

Wow Dreena – so many good choices. I have the kindle version of the book that I pre-ordered and did read when I got it. BUT I haven’t made anything from the recipes yet so thanks for the reminder! I think the nachos would be a good thing to blog about since most adults and kids like them.

Oh my, Chocolate Banana Bread sounds heavenly!

You made the chickpea tacos sound so good in your video, I vote for those.
