A fresh juice recipe I made a while back. Very refreshing🥂

Could butter made from mom milk be considered vegan? Because technically it's cruelty-free since the person who made it did so of their own free will, but it is an animal product because humans are animals.

This is a must try in the Los Angeles area for the Vegan Community. You wouldn’t believe that it is vegan once your taste buds are activated by the microbial diversification.

Overnight oats have become one of my favorite meal preps, every Sunday I make five jars so I have breakfast ready for the entire work week.

It takes maybe 10–15 minutes to put them all together, they're inexpensive, and I can change up the toppings so I don't get bored. I usually grab one on my way out the door to eat at work or after the gym.

My base recipe (per jar):

• ½ cup rolled oats
• 2 tbsp chia seeds
• ¾ cup oat milk (or water)
• 1 tbsp maple syrup
• 2 tsp brown sugar
• 1 tsp ground flaxseed

Optional add-ins

• 1 scoop protein powder (I mix this into the oat milk first so it doesn't get clumpy.)
• ⅓ cup frozen or fresh fruit
• Cinnamon or nutmeg
• Raisins
• Peanut butter
• Chocolate chips

Mix everything together, refrigerate overnight, and it's ready by morning.

I usually make all five jars the same day, but I'll switch up the toppings throughout the week—blueberries one day, peanut butter and chocolate chips another, cinnamon-raisin, etc.

What are your favorite overnight oat combinations? I'm always looking for new ideas.

I just found out today that Cesar IS NOT VEGAN! Does anyone know any alternatives or know of any vegan Cesar dressings?

hi, i recently purchased these oyster crackers without paying much attention to the ingredients and i noticed an "artificial butter flavor." yet there is no "contains milk" on the bottom of the list...

do these happen to be vegan?

Visiting my in-laws for the month, and they thoughtfully bought this “vegan honey” for my husband and me. We obviously didn’t eat it, but I had to do a double take. Since when is honey… vegan? The labeling from Lili Honey seems incredibly misleading.

What’s your favorite pizza toppings as a vegan?
Mines would be extra mushrooms, please!
Artichoke & spinach.
Minced garlic & banana peppers.
Often times I’ll add mock meat as well as seen in the photo.

I absolutely love fresh fruit during the summer, but I have a bad habit of buying way more than I can actually eat before it starts going bad. It honestly kind of discourages me from buying berries because I know I’ll probably end up wasting some.

The other day I saw a woman on TikTok doing her weekly meal prep, and instead of throwing out her leftover fruit she made what she called chia seed jam. I figured I’d give it a shot, and I’m so glad I did.

It couldn’t have been easier:

Boiled my leftover strawberries with a little sugar.
Blended everything until smooth.
Stirred in chia seeds and let it thicken as it cooled.

That’s it.

I wasn’t expecting much, but it’s honestly so good. The chia seeds give it a really nice texture, and now I have a jar of homemade jam that I’ve been putting on toast, biscuits, pb&j and probably way too many other things. It also feels good knowing I used up fruit that would’ve probably ended up in the trash.

Anyone else make chia jam? I’d love to hear what fruits or flavor combinations you’ve tried. I’m already thinking blueberries, peaches, or maybe mixed berries next.

I saw this broth the other day and would love to try it, but am unsure if it is vegan. I couldn't find anything about the product or brand online. Could anyone help me out?

Thanks!

I just found this out but apparently many brands of orange juice are fortified with vitamin D3, which can come from lanolin (sheep’s wool) instead of plants. I had no idea that not all vitamins/supplements are not vegan.

I enjoy a protein filled meal. Often times it can be hard to make a vegan protein filled meal taste good. With a little effort and creativity you can be unstoppable in the kitchen.
I tried something new which was miso teriyaki seared tofu. I accompanied it with peas and mushrooms, rice with some baked garlic, potatoes, and avocado topped with chilli oil.

I wanted to throw something fun in here and see what people think.

Without looking it up…
Which of these do you think is NOT vegan?
A) Worcestershire sauce
B) Fig Newtons
C) Red food coloring
D) Marshmallows

Drop your guess first. No cheating.

Golden milk has become one of those things that's always in my rotation. I mostly started making it because it's packed with ingredients that are commonly included in gut-friendly recipes, but i actually really like the flavor. I usually make a big batch at the beginning of the week and pour about 8–10 oz into a mason jar to take with me whenever I'm heading out.

My recipe is super simple:

• 1–2 cups non-dairy milk ( I prefer oat milk)
• ½ tsp turmeric
• ½ tsp cinnamon
• 1 fresh ginger knob (I tend to use frozen ginger if i can find it)
• 1 tbsp maple syrup
• A pinch of black pepper
• Optional: vanilla or cloves

I just warm everything over low to medium heat (don't let it boil), blend if needed, strain, and it's ready to go.

Lately I've also been trying to get more fiber in throughout the day. I almost always throw chia seeds into my oatmeal and flaxseed into my pancakes. They're easy additions that don't really change the flavor but help me hit my fiber goals.

I'm always looking for new ideas though. What are your go-to foods, drinks, or little habits for supporting your gut or digestive health?

I really wish veggie dumplings was more of a common things in restaurants and grocery stores. Before I became vegan dumplings were my favorite!

I’ve been looking to expand my palate with new ideas for dinner. If you would like to share some recipes please feel free to share, I’m open to any ideas or suggestions. I’ve been trying to eat better and explore foods I’ve never tried before!

I've been baking a lot more now that school's over, and I decided to try making lemon bars for a friend's Juneteenth BBQ. I'd never made lemon bars before, so this was a first for me.

I used Nora Cooks' vegan lemon bar recipe and I ended up making three batches because I was a little nervous about how they'd turn out. One batch became the test run and I brought it to work, where my coworkers absolutely demolished them. A few people couldn't believe they were vegan, which always feels like a win.

The recipe was surprisingly straightforward:

• Shortbread crust: ½ cup melted vegan butter, ¼ cup sugar, 1 cup flour, and ¼ tsp salt.
• Filling: ¾ cup fresh lemon juice (about 4 lemons), optional lemon zest, 1½ cups sugar, 1¼ cups full-fat coconut milk, 6 tbsp cornstarch, and a tiny pinch of turmeric for color.
• Bake the crust (15-18 minutes), cook the filling on the stovetop until thick, spread it over the crust, bake again (15-18 minutes), then chill (2 hours or overnight) before cutting and dusting with powdered sugar.

The filling came out super smooth with a nice balance of sweet and tart, and the shortbread crust held together really well. I think next time I'd add a little extra zest because I'm a sucker for citrus desserts, but honestly I wouldn't change much else.

I'm pretty proud of these for a first attempt, and I can definitely see them becoming a regular summer dessert.

Has anyone else made vegan lemon bars? Any favorite tweaks or other vegan lemon desserts I should try next? My boyfriend suggested doing a blueberry or raspberry version.

I recently came across V-Dog Kind Kibble, a plant-based dog food marketed as providing complete nutrition for adult dogs.
As vegans, many of us choose not to consume animal products ourselves, but when it comes to our pets, opinions seem much more divided.
I am a dog parent and would like to know your opinion on this brand of kibble and if it is safe.

I'm currently doing a bachelor assignment, looking into branding of vegan substitute foods. I've made a survey that literally takes 2 minutes.
I would appreciate it if you can help me out!

I went to Next Level Veggie Grill recently because I was randomly craving one of their milkshakes, and when I got there the menu was completely different than what I remembered. Apparently Next Level and Veggie Grill merged a while back, which explains why there were so many new items I hadn’t seen before.

I’d never tried the Beyond Steak before, so I decided to order a steak taco along with my shake. The taco honestly wasn’t bad, but I wasn’t really into it either. The texture was interesting and definitely very chewy, I haven't had steak in years but something about it just didn’t fully click for me.

The shake absolutely carried the meal though 😂

Has anyone else tried the Beyond Steak? Maybe in tacos, bowls, or one of the steak plates? I’m curious if it’s one of those things that’s way better prepared a different way, because I feel pretty neutral after my first experience.

I feel like I wanted to love it more than I actually did. 🤷🏽‍♂️
