"The title sums up this recipe pretty well. The cheese is made with a starch-based sauce that is naturally stringy and gooey, giving it that authentic grilled cheese pull we’re all looking for. *The cheese needs to be able to melt. Not all vegan cheeses melt, unfortunately."

  • Step 1/5

    • 4 slices bread
    • 3 tbsp plant-based butter
    • 4 tbsp ketchup (optional)

    Spread vegan butter on one side of each piece of bread. Add any optional ketchup or marinara sauce to the unbuttered side of one slice.
