I have 2 days of Vegan in my diet with the hope of having more and this would be a wonderful end to my vegan meals. I am new to vegan eating so finding agar agar and green tea powder looks like my kind of adventure. Cannot wait.

This is spectacular! I now have more vegan friends, so I want to be able to cook for them, too.

Thank you! I hadn't seen Merrill's spinach panna cotta until after I uploaded this. I debated between putting up this one or the chocolate version. But I like the flavors of the matcha, almond and coconut even better than the chocolate. Enjoy!
