Vegan Feta Cheese ~
A dairy-free feta that actually crumbles!
This easy-to-make, non-dairy cheese is cooked on the stovetop then chilled to perfection for vegan feta that can be used for salads, casseroles, pizzas, and more!
My favorite way to use this homemade feta is for Spanakopita (Greek Spinach Pie).

- extra-firm tofu
