You can also try out their mozzarella and pepperjack style shreds! So, if you're looking for a cheese alternative and have many other allergies, this is a MUST TRY brand!
We've tried both - cheddar in a mac & cheese recipe and mozzarella in a ziti recipe. We thought the cheddar's flavor was a little less artificial, but both will do in a pinch. I can eat dairy, unlike my son, so maybe I'm partial :(
ReplyDeleteI came across your site on the Circle of Mom's top 25 Food Allergy Mom Blogs. It's given me the idea to start a blog hop for allergies, asthma and eczema - parents or adults dealing with the condition. Please check out the page here and add a comment if you'd like to join. Thanks!
