How to Eat Less Cheese



So maybe you saw a documentary and you want to eat less cheese, but you don't know how.


Because it's hard, it is everywhere. It's convenient to eat cheese in the U.S.


It's a lazy way the food industry makes everything taste better, and it gets you wanting more ($).


(See this post on why cheese is addicting)


It just takes a tiny bit of effort to swap this hormone disrupting, artery blocking product for something else.


And that's exactly what it is, a swap. The words "cutting out" is never a positive frame of mind to begin a diet change with, so try not to put that mental stress on yourself.


Instead, think of it as a curious adventure of exploring new dairy-free options.


If you want to begin, I address swaps for all of our favorite traditional cheesy foods here.

Grocery list included.


1. Cheese pizza

  • Homemade pizza with/ violife cheese

  • Seek out vegan cheese pizza places like the chain Blaze Pizza

  • Search your local area on google maps with key words "vegan pizza"

  • Bertucci's roasted vegetable pizza is so flavorful it doesn't need cheese
