VEGAN FETA CHEESE RECIPE, ALMOND BASED RECIPES

Vegan Feta Cheese Recipe: an almond based vegan feta cheese that is sliceable and spreadable.

I include lactic acid as optional in the recipe. You don�t have to use it to get a delicious results. I does up the tangy sour feta-y flavor if you do end up using it. Here is the lactic acid I use.

Keep soaked nuts in your freezer and you will always be ready to make nut cheeses, smoothies or raw cheesecakes, like my Raspberry Rose Cheesecake. It is a similar process to my Cashew Labneh but I give it a quick bake in a mold, leading to a firmer cheese.

Ingredients :

Almond Feta

• 1 cup blanched almonds
• 2 cup water
• 1/2 tsp apple cider vinegar
• 3 tsp lemon juice
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp white miso
• 1 clove garlic
• 2 tsp nutritional yeast
• 1/2 tsp lactic acid optional

Herbed Marinade.

• 1/4 cup lemon juice
• 1/2 cup olive oil
• 1/4 cup minced herbs, I used rosemary, dill, oregano, mint, and sage
• 1/2 tsp salt to taste
• 1/2 tsp pepper to taste
• 2 cloves garlic minced
• zest of one lemon
• 1 tsp dijon mustard

Instructions :

Almond Feta

Soak your almonds in the water for 6 hours or overnight.

1. Drain your almonds and place the almonds in your blender with two cups of fresh water and puree until absolutely smooth.
2. Heat the almond mixture in a sauce pan stirring often and being sure not to burn. You want the almond mixture to be very hot to the touch but not boiling.
3. Line a sieve with cheese cloth or a clean unbleached white t-shirt and place it over a bowl to catch the whey. Pour the curdled almond mixture into the sieve and allow the whey to drip away into the bowl below. After about an hour pour out the whey and replace the bowl beneath.Fold the cloth over the top of the "cheese" and weigh down with a small plate and a can of beans to press on the "cheese" and release more water.

Much has been said about the latest in the healthcare sector. Politicians' continue to bicker and have no solid plan to replace the current plan. Certain Analysts believe if this Trump Administration plan passes the Senate their proposal will leave over 23 million people without coverage by the year 2026. The Affordable Care Act law is and was simply put in place to help the American people who were once unable to get any type of coverage, finally get the care he or she may need. Secondly, it has also helped more than enough individuals with pre-existing conditions get coverage as well. And thirdly there is the concern of affordability; this is for people who do not have enough money to pay for insurance on their own, the current law provides financial assistance for those eligible to receive money from the government.

The problem with today's guidelines are the plans are based on: age, geographic location, the ability to pay, the rising cost of medical technology and taxes. Notice there is nothing mentioned about your overall health conditions. Until the underwriting process is brought back into the equation, then insurers' will never be able to accurately measure their risk and set premium prices at affordable rates. The message to insurers' is the fact that no one should be denied health insurance due to their finances or health related conditions to help protect against their financial losses when and if they occurred.

During this era a majority of insurance companies especially those that specialize in the health sector jumped on the band wagon with lower premiums knowing financial assistance would be there to help pay for coverage. Plans were and are designed to basically take the American peoples' money first before paying any claims. Once the claims began to come from more than enough people, then insurers' realized their premiums were set too low and began experiencing financial losses. There is no coincidence today why as consumers we hear about large health carriers pulling out of the marketplace and are no longer willing to participate this coming 2018 season under the ACA format.

The solution for consumers, we have to educate ourselves and grasp a good understanding and not listen to all the rhetoric in the media. We need a suite of insurance products to benefit us in the event there are some types of loss. Whether its a loss of life, the inability to work for certain period of time, or failing health our money needs to be protected at reasonable rates. Do this now while you are still healthy with the right kind of life and health insurance plans; underwriting is the key.

There are more than enough life and health insurance companies who offer benefits to protect your money. They never moved into this whole affordable care dilemma. Insurance today is still being sold on the premise of an individual's risk factors. These type of plans whether they are: accident, cancer, critical illness, dread disease, hospitalization, preventive care and wellness, also known as MEC (minimum essential coverage) or life insurance policies are and will always be available.

The Affordable Care Act is a good law that needs to be revised and not replaced. In today's environment of government uncertainty, why listen to such chaos? "People perish because of a lack of knowledge." Hosea 4:6a. Now that you have been given this knowledge, perish not; be encouraged and do the right thing for your family and your finances.
