Notes
I have found that this brand of Vegan Mozzarella is the best! It tastes like the real deal and is made using cashews. You can find it at most Whole Foods and other major grocery stores! For this recipe you can easily increase or decrease the servings to accommodate more people. This recipe makes 6 crostini's, so about 2 per person.
