This Foxy Moxy cheese is a perfect vegan stand in for fresh mozzarella cheese, especially for your Margherita pizzas! The recipe is originally from Somer McCowan at VedgedOut.com. As her site’s since been closed, I have posted my version of the recipe below.
I first wrote about this amazingly easy cheese recipe when I decided to have an entire weekend dedicated to pizza. Since then, I have been making this recipe, with some variations, almost every week. I put it on everything from pizza, to lasagna, to grilled cheese sandwiches, and have even incorporated it into this Avocado Alfredo Sauce Recipe.

With Somer’s permission, I filmed this minute and a half long tutorial to show how easy it is to make. Please give it a watch if you haven’t tried her recipe yet. <3
Please let me know if you’ve tried Foxy Moxy before and what you thought of it! 🙂

Foxy Moxy Vegan Mozzarella Cheese Sauce
Easy Mozzarella alternative for pizza, gooey cheese toasts, lasagna and more! Adapted from Somer McCowan's original Foxy Moxy cheese sauce from 2013.
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup raw cashews (for neutral flavor; roasted is fine if you like the taste)
- 1 cup hot water
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- 3/4 tsp salt
- 2 Tbsp tapioca flour
Optional
- small clove garlic
- 1 tsp nutritional yeast
- 1 tsp olive oil
Instructions
- Blend all ingredients together until smooth.
- Transfer to a saucepan and cook over medium heat while stirring constantly. It will thicken until the whole mass starts to move with your spoon. You can taste to check if it's done (cool a bit first! it's very hot) about 150°F.
- Enjoy on pizza, lasagna, and more!
