No need for this to not be vegan though — I second the suggestion for using nutritional yeast (not brewers yeast by the way … that is more bitter) instead of parmesan.
You also will need to up the salt a bit (parmesan is very salty so without it you need to add some to get the same flavour) and no need for any bread crumbs (someone else suggested). Just nooch (as us vegans call nutritional yeast). A great way to add more B-vitamins to your diet as well. It’s good stuff. My husband is not vegan and he can’t tell the difference when I make pesto with this stuff + a bit of salt instead of parmesan – he loves it. Put it in starting with a 1/2c for this recipe, add another teaspoon of salt and taste. Adjust nooch and salt to taste.
Cheese is not good for your mucus production or your joints – milk is highly inflammatory …. (also the cows are not so happy about it).

I was wondering about this too…..Parmesan in a vegan recipe?
