70 vegan comfort food recipes banner

Did you think comfort foods would cease to exist once going plant-based? Silly, you. This collection of appetizers, main dishes, desserts, and side dishes prove the exact opposite. There’s something for everyone.

You can have healthy and delicious, plant-based comfort foods without sacrificing flavor or satisfaction. And, almost all of these recipes can be made with normal everyday pantry items.

1

Condiments

I love condiments as much as food. It just seems unnatural to eat potatoes without ketchup, a sandwich without mayo, a taco without sour cream and cheese, or a veggie platter without some creamy ranch? Condiments help you to spice up your meals and add flavor. But, most are not vegan. And, many of the vegan ones contain so much oil and other processed ingredients. But, here are several WFPB and vegan versions of your favorites!

    Thank you for this compilation! I found the link to this specific page on Pinterest and it was way more helpful than individual recipes…. although now I find myself scouring through your recipes and we’ve already made several of them. My hubby and I have recently changed our way of eating to WFPB and your site has so many delicious things that we can enjoy together. Thank you! I’ll be here frequently. 🙂
