There's something about that perfect topping that rounds out your meal, adding depth and interest. For me, that was always parmesan cheese.
But since giving up dairy, I notice the lack of parmesan cheese all the time. On pastas and pizzas especially.
And while you can find lots of other recipes online, only this one is easy enough to throw together in no time at all, and is nut free.
If you're looking to add that extra richness that comes with parmesan cheese, I've seen vegan bloggers also include hemp seeds, which you could add to taste.
But for me, this recipe is simple perfection. And I will keep making it just like this!
