Vegan Comfort Food is the best! In this post, I’m sharing my favorite comfort food recipes for breakfast, lunch & dinner, and dessert!
There are two kinds of people. Those, who eat to get all the nutrients they need for their body to function and those, who eat because it’s awesome and delicious and the best ever. Needless to say, I’m the latter.
I’m all about comfort foods. And I’m sure you’ve noticed this if you’ve been around my blog.
I’ve grouped the recipes into the following categories:
Vegan Pierogi (polish dumplings) – they are filled with potatoes, onion, and cumin. Flavorful & delicious and pan-fried until crispy.
Schnitzel
Vegan Schnitzel – a veganized version of a classic Wiener Schnitzel. Textured vegetable protein makes the perfect base for our schnitzel because it has an excellent meat-like texture.
Fried ‘Fish’
Artichoke Fish – I love how creative vegan cooking can be. Fried Artichoke Fish is one of my favorite comfort foods. Served with tartar sauce and potatoes, it tastes just like the real deal! You can also make vegan fish with banana blossoms!
Spaghetti Bolognese
Vegan Spaghetti Bolognese – Soy granule is the perfect alternative for the traditional meaty Bolognese sauce! This vegan Spaghetti Bolognese is quick to make and no one would think it’s vegan!
Chili sin Carne
Vegan Chili Sin Carne – You can’t go wrong with a big pot of chili. I love to serve it at parties because it can easily be reheated and it’s super filling, nutritious, and gets you ready for a long night. And the best part—it basically cooks itself.
Coconut Curry
Vegan Coconut Curry with crispy tofu – I’m a sucker for curries. Especially when there is broccoli, sweet potato, and tofu involved. There is something about this combination…the sweetness of the coconut milk and sweet potato, the crispiness of the tofu, the broccoli and basmati rice soaking up all the flavors… I just love it.
Spaetzle
Cheesy Spaetzle – a traditional Austrian/German dish! Topped with fried onions and chives. You don’t need eggs for the fluffiest spaetzle!
Gnocchi
Vegan Gnocchi in creamy tomato sauce – You’ll only need 3 ingredients for homemade gnocchi from scratch and they’re really easy to make. And they even taste better than the store-bought ones!
Stovetop Mac & Cheese
Vegan Mac & Cheese – an absolute American classic comfort food dish. With homemade vegan cheese! Perfect as a main, or as a side dish.
Dessert
Donuts
Vegan Donuts – Who doesn’t love fluffy vegan donuts?! These are super easy to make, fried, not baked. Coat them in chocolate, glaze, powdered sugar and add sprinkles!
Milkshake
Vegan Chocolate Milkshake – This is a completely plant-based version of your favorite Chocolate Milkshake! It’s topped with soy whip, homemade chocolate sauce and shaved chocolate. The perfect treat for hot summer days! Ready in 5 minutes!
Chocolate Peanut Butter Ice Cream – Frozen bananas are the perfect base for the easiest, creamiest and healthiest ice cream. For this Vegan Chocolate Peanut Butter Ice Cream, you’ll only need 3 ingredients and a food processor (or blender). No churning and ready in 5 minutes!
Banana Fritters
Vegan Banana Fritters – These vegan Banana Fritters have a light and crispy batter, they are coated in maple syrup and sprinkled with sesame seeds. The perfect treat for Banana Lovers!
Snickers Cups
Vegan Snickers Cups – filled with roasted peanuts and a creamy caramel sauce. These are so simple to make – you will be surprised!
Apple Fritter Rings
Vegan Apple Fritter Rings – These were one of my childhood favorites! But you don’t need eggs or dairy to make them. These Vegan Apple Fritter Rings taste just like the real deal (if not better!). Served with an Almond Maple Sauce – this is a match made in heaven!
