You’ll feel like your in the Mediterranean with so many amazing flavors! Miyoko’s Black Ash is my new favorite vegan cheese, it went so well with this dish topped with my favorite Raw Olive Oil from Rallis. I’m very lucky to have an organic Spanish Store that carries red peppers, artichokes, olives and many amazing spices, like Urfa and Marash…. If you’re reading this I will gift you both the cheese and the oil! Just comment below! Enjoy, it’s so delightful to eat vegan. Blessings!
