Dairy-Free Portobello Caprese
To make this dairy-free ‘mozzarella’, you’ll be using cashews and grass-fed gelatin. This simple cheese alternative can be grated, sliced or piled onto your favorite dishes (pizza, tacos, etc) to achieve creamy cheesy flavor. You’ll get the amino acid-rich collagen found in gelatin without any of the artificial hormones and antibiotics found in store-bought dairy products. These amino acids are known to heal gut ailments while boosting collagen production. Once the cheese is set, grate and pile onto the mushroom cap followed by tomato slices and chopped basil.
