Here at The Creative Kitchen, we LOVE cheese! It’s great as a snack on its own, or a delicious addition to many of our favorite meals! However, we realize that not everyone is able to indulge in cheese, so if you’re looking for a lactose-free, allergy-friendly cheese alternative, try Go Veggie! Their Grated Parmesan is the perfect product to sprinkle on top of your favorite dish. It’s 100% plant-based, non-GMO, and has double the calcium compared to ordinary cheese. Plus it tastes amazing! Go Veggie Grated Parmesan is a great product to have in your pantry if you have family members who are dairy-free or vegan, so that everyone can indulge in cheesy goodness anytime they want!

The Creative Kitchen is happy to have Go Veggie as a sponsor for one of our Whole Foods Market cooking classes the week of August 20th! Learn more at www.thecreativekitchen.com/calendar.

From the Mouth of a Kid:

Yummy! It tastes so good on top of my spaghetti!

From the Eyes of a Parent:

With lactose intolerant children, it can be hard to find cheese alternatives that they actually enjoy. This is why I love Go Veggie’s dairy-free Grated Parmesan! Not only does it taste great, but it’s a better option for my kids, and they find it so delicious! I am not lactose intolerant, but I love experimenting with plant-based products here and there, and this is one of the best cheese alternatives I’ve tried in a while. It’s very versatile – I use it on pasta, chicken, soups, and so much more, and my kids just love it! Also, I can’t believe that it has more calcium than regular parmesan cheese. Go Veggie Grated Parmesan has become a staple in our house!

Flavorful Features:

Go Veggie Grated Parmesan comes in two options to enjoy: Lactose-Free and Vegan.
