Vegan mozzarella + sourdough = grilled cheese heaven.

Telling you that vegan cheeses make the grade is one thing, but trying them out for yourself is another. And what better way to put them to the test than in a tried-and-true comfort classic?

How to make a vegan grilled cheese? The most important thing is to start with excellent-quality vegan cheese, like Fauxmagerie’s “pub cheddar”. You can also make your own vegan cheese, it’s surprisingly easy thanks to Hannah Sunderani’s easy recipe for vegan mozzarella.
