tofu cheesecake recipe

Thanks!!
This time I ended up with a super simple very nice tofu cheesecake made of soaked cashews and tofu. Crust was just pressed chopped nuts and oil. Simple and good!

super basic question: why do canned beans need to be rinsed?

thanks everyone! I buy Eden Organic BPA-free sodium-free canned beans, and as was mentioned below, some recipes work better with the liquid (in this case seaweed). Just wanted to make sure there weren't any good reasons not to.

Thanks!!

Planning on making my first one next week--any tried and true recipes out there?

Thanks!

TIA!

Vitamix or the Ninja?

thank you so much!
is there a specific Vitamix model most appropriate for home use? Or are any suitable?

Vitamix or the Ninja?

thought it might be relevant to indicate that I will be using one of the above to make dips like hummus and baba ghanoush, pureed soups, sauces, and the occasional smoothie.

Vitamix or the Ninja?

Both got top results in Consumer Reports, but the former is something like 4x the price of the latter. Justifiable?

Thanks!!

best vegan food

good to know!

I loved their heirloom tomato lasagna, but heard that the recipe has been changed and it's no longer as extraordinary as it was. True?

Vegan foods at Trader Joe's - What's good?

you've shocked me! we're in NJ, and other than a few items, our TJ's produce is inferior to pretty much every other store by a longshot.

best vegan food

thank you!
so, do you have to specify that you'd like it vegan, or are the dishes you ordered vegan by design?

best vegan food

I know this was covered years ago, but looking for a fresh take on the best vegan food around the city. Anywhere on the Island is great, in any price range. Simply looking for the best vegan food around, most likely in an all-vegan resto.

Thanks so much in advance!!

the quality of TJs produce doesn't compare to that of what most of us can get elsewhere. Perhaps price alone works for some, but the value of fresh produce is more about taste and quality and freshness and proximity to where it was grown for us.

Unrelatedly, broccoli is probably not worth buying organic according to the dirty dozen/clean fifteen group

avoid the fresh produce--it is not worth buying as a rule. aside from that, great suggestions

Thank you, CH!

Husband and I went mainly vegan in January, so absolutely thrilled to see this board. Thank you!

Beginning My Vegan Journey

We have also recently converted (we're about 3 months in). My advice is to eat as many fruits and veggies as possible, and you'll do fine health-wise. PPK, as already suggested, is a great beginning source of recipes. Enjoy!
