Follow your heart is a vegan food brand that makes a variety of plant based cheese, vegan mayonnaise, and vegan salad dressings. I try to follow a more plant based diet, so I was looking for something to use instead of cheese to make a vegan sandwich. They have quite a few options for cheese, they have smoked gouda, provolone, cheddar, mozzarella, pepper jack, or American style cheese. They even have vegan grated parmesan and crumbled feta cheese. For this, I tried the plant-based American style cheese slices. Because I love tofurkey sandwiches, I usually add sliced American or cheddar cheese to it. So I thought that the American cheese would go great with these sandwiches. I used some tofurkey slices and a slice of this vegan cheese to make a plant based sandwich, that really tastes like a classic turkey and cheese sandwich. I have not tried to melt this cheese yet, but I think that it would work great in a vegan grilled cheese, or any other cheese dish. You can also serve this cheese on top of veggie burgers to make vegan cheese burgers.
Each slice of these plant based cheese slices is 60 calories, and each package comes with 10 slices of plant based cheese. The price per package is just under 5 dollars, at $4.87, so it is a little bit more expensive than regular dairy based cheese, but for a healthier alternative, it is a pretty good price. They put on the package that this cheese is vegan, soy-free, and lactose-free. It is also non-GMO. These plant based cheese slices really do make a great way to incorporate some plant based ingredients into your foods. They taste very similar to your classic American cheese slices.
