I got to thinking that, hey, other vegan cheesecakes could have this same unusual foundation and be just as yummy (and high protein, for those who are looking for additional protein in their vegan diet). Here are recipes for three such cheesecakes:  1. Lemon Vanilla Chickpea-Tofu Cheesecake,  2. Maple-Pecan Chickpea-Tofu Cheesecake 3.
