Best Vegan Grilled Cheeses Because Every Day Should Be #NationalGrilledCheeseDay
Yes, vegans can eat grilled cheese—and not just your basic two pieces of bread with a slice of cruelty-free cheese in between but all kinds of grilled cheese. Sure, we love the quick, easy deliciousness that comes with grilling a few slices of Field Roast’s Chao, Daiya, or Follow Your Heart on bread, but sometimes, you need to get creative.
Vegan grilled cheese is basically the best thing known to man, so we’ve compiled our fave drool-worthy sandwiches just in time for National Grilled Cheese Day. Now go melt some vegan cheese!
