SO HOW'D IT GO?

Awesome! Just made it for a soy chorizo and mushroom pizza and it is my first try at vegan cheese and I am beside myself--it's as good as the vegan cheese pizzas I get at Karyn's on Green restaurant! Seriously, give it a go. I think having a high speed blender helped tremendously too.
