lately I've been having this craving for pizza with lots of melted cheese which I can't have due to milk allergies. Is there anyway to get the Tofutti cheese to melt? Is there any other Parve soy substitute out there that melts? |

Toffuti does melt - kind of! I would cut it really small (too soft to shred/grate). I used to melt it into stovetop casseroles an d stirring helped. I never made pizza from scratch They sell a prepared Toffuti Pizza in the frozen section of out supermarket. |

Yes, I make pizza with it weekly. My kids LOVE it. Its actually good on pizza. I stack the slices up and than cut length, and cut width. Small squares. I than sprinkle them over and they melt perfect. Just try not to let it chunk anywhere. I also make pareve mac and cheese. In a couple of weeks chabad.org should be publishing more allergy friendly recipes from me for the 9 days. |

toffuti pizza wasn't good when I tried it a couple of years ago and in those days the cheese didn't melt. I guess I'll try it again... which flavors are good? |

bnm- we also will sauté up some veggies and mix them with a bit of sauce (and sometimes add in some meat as well). We take a bit of toffuti slices and chop them up. Than put it all in puff pastry sheets like a deli roll and bake it. It can really hit the spot when we are wanting something like a calzone. |

While we are on this topic, does anyone know of a non-dairy, non-soy "cheese" that we could use in recipes (melted, not in sandwiches)? |

or make calazone dough (ie pizza dough) and fill it with what ever works for you. |

thanks for the advice. I made myself a pizza today with tofuti American cheese, ketchup, and oregano on laffa. That certainly took care of my most major craving! |
