Featured Vegan Recipes
Dal Kachori (Savory Lentil Dumplings)
Biting into these dumplings releases a warm, savory flavor that will stick in your memory. A perfect side dish to serve to guests when you’re feeling a little fancy! This recipe is based on one in the excellent cookbook, Vegan Richa’s Indian Kitchen.
Indian Mushrooms and Peas in Spicy Sauce (Mushroom Mutter Chettinad)
Fragrant, creamy, and spicy all at once!
Chickpea “Tuna” Sandwich
This recipe is inspired by one in Isa Does It, an excellent book by Isa Chandra Moskowitz. The vegan “tuna” spread stores well and makes a convenient lunch for several days.
Vegan Orange “Chicken” with Crispy Tofu
Orange chicken is a classic American-Chinese comfort food. This recipe will show you how to make that same delicious orange glaze over a vegan protein.
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!
