Tips from a dairy-free kitchen

• Milk can be substituted with:


• soy milk


• rice milk


• nut milk (e.g., almond milk)



• Cream substitutes:


• coconut milk (great in desserts!)


• soy creamer (caution: boiling causes curdling)



• Butter alternatives:


• Vegan margarine


• Dairy-free margarine



• Cheese substitutes:


• non-dairy "cream cheese"


• Vegan "cheese slices"


• Vegan "cheese"

Of course, you can also try non-cow's milk dairy products, to see if the issue is simply one of the type of milk you're ingesting.
