Featured Vegan Recipes
Vegan Chocolate Cheesecake
The star of this recipe is the cheesecake batter. Only four ingredients, but it has a bitter-sweet, rich flavor that makes you pause while eating to enjoy it. The texture is also excellent. It is stiff enough to hold bubbles and resemble a creamy cheesecake, but without all that animal fat! If you’re not in the mood to make a crust, pouring this batter into tiny dessert cups with some berries on top wouldn’t go amiss.
Vegan Chocolate Cake
How do you make a cake without eggs? This delicious recipe uses a surprising substitute: avocados! The taste of the avocado disappears, but it imparts a wonderfully moist texture to the cake.

Veggie Sushi Rolls (ヴィーガン寿司)
Cucumber, avocado, and carrot are a classic combo for vegan sushi.
Vegan Empanadas with Tender Wheat Pastry
The star of this recipe is the flaky, easy-to-crimp dough from Viva Vegan! The flavor and texture of this dough is so good, you’ll wonder if you’re not at a professional bakery. Like most good pastry, the most important ingredient is time. This dough needs to be left to chill for at least four hours!
For a fast empanada without the wait time, you can try making it with the crusty corn dough from this recipe. I prefer the wheat version, but if you’re in a hurry the corn dough is excellent!
Vegan Haggis Pie
Haggis, the national dish of Scotland, is the last thing you might expect to find veganized. We can fully capture the flavor of haggis by keeping the traditional ingredients of oats, barley, onions, and spices. The notorious organ meats can be replaced with mushrooms for a much improved meal!
Potato-Chickpea Enchiladas with Green Tomatillo Sauce
This recipe is based on one From Terry Hope Romano’s excellent book, Viva Vegan! This dish is a warm and hearty, but with healthy ingredients it will still leave you feeling comfortably light after dinner.
Cilantro Lime Rice
Cooking your rice in a bit of lime juice lifts the flavor and makes it a perfect side for a Mexican meal.
