Fall in Love with the Best Vegan Recipes

The Secret to Finding Wonderful Vegan Recipes...

I am extremely passionate about all thing?s vegan, so much so that my friends are always asking me about my best vegan recipes - the truth is there are too many to count. One of the things I love about being vegan is all of the food. Being vegan has opened me up to new ingredients and new experiences – for example, discovering Balinese Tempeh when I was backpacking in Indonesia. My secret for finding the ‘best’ vegan recipe depends on the occasion and what you like, but I want to outline some of my favourite recipes.

Imagine you are staying in for movie night and you are looking for an alternative to popcorn, I absolutely adore this recipe for Cheesy Cauliflower. Don’t let the name give you the wrong impression, this recipe is all vegan, the star it turmeric which is now being used to replace the dreadful process cheese in Kraft’s Macaroni and Cheese. Besides the turmeric and cauliflower, you will need lemon juice, olive oil, paprika, and sea salt. If you like it spicy, add some chili powder for that extra oomph. This addictive recipe tastes great and will boost immunity and metabolism making it one of the best vegan snack options.

Do you love curry? Well, there are plenty of vegan options to get your curry on, one of my favourites comes from celebrity chef Jamie Oliver, and while he calls it a ‘Christmas Curry’, I think it is one of the best vegan meals to have year round. The curry is a delicious mix of fennel, cauliflower, chilli, tomatoes, cinnamon, cashews, and pomegranate – it smells great and tastes even better, especially with Indian Tempeh. This might be one of the most indulgent vegan recipes ever, and it sure to be hit with when you are entertaining. I do have to warn you that it takes about two hours to pull together, but you can easily prep in advance and then pull it out just before your guests comes over.

Looking for something simpler, but just as delicious for the work week, these Black Pepper Burgers are easy to pull together and will be popular with your kids. The mix of lentils, chickpeas, carrots, and black pepper sauce make these burgers a sure fire hit. To mix it up a bit I like to form them into bite-sized sliders while cooking up a batch of my oven roasted sweet potato French fries – Cookie and Kate have one of the best vegan recipes for perfect, crispy fries.

 Fancy a Delicious Vegan Breakfast?

What about breakfast? After all, it is the most important meal of the day. Well here is an option to get your day off to a great start by making breakfast on of the best vegan meals. My personal favorite comes from Naomi Imatome-Yun, managing editor of Forks Over Knives. I love it so much I could eat it everyday –the Breakfast Burrito Bake. The recipe relies on grated potatoes, vegetables, and beans and is the best vegan food for starting your day. One of the beautiful aspects of this recipe is that you can prepare everything in advance and then just through it in the oven while you are in the shower. Or even better, bake it the night before and leave it in the refrigerator – just like cold pizza, but even better.

This brings me to pizza. Many people think going vegan means giving up pizza, but I want to tell you that is not the case. In fact, there are so many vegan pizza recipes that it is almost impossible to pick my favorite. However, a couple sure-fire hits are Raw Vegan Pizza with Spinach, Pesto, and Marinated Vegetables and Vegan Bang Mi Pizza from My Darling Vegan. Don’t take my word for it, try them out yourself and let me know which one you think is the best vegan recipe for pizza.
