    Hot Healthy Vegan Recipes For Winter

    Recipes that are guaranteed to help you stay healthy and warm from the inside out this winter. These side dishes, mains, and breakfast recipes are oil-free, vegan, plant-based, and so easy to make.

    hot healthy vegan recipes for winter header image.

    This biggest argument my wife and I have is always centered around the thermostat. Summer or winter, it doesn’t matter. Regardless of the season, I like the house to be a little more on the chilly side. My thought is you can always put on more clothing, but I can only take off so much.

    So if you’re a person who’s always cold and walks around the house in the middle of June or January wearing a sweater these recipes are for you. They’re hot, hearty, and super comforting.

    And, because most people are staying in and not traveling as much, for obvious reasons, these recipes are also super healthy. So, they’ll help you to avoid putting on the “Covid 20” until things get back to normal.

    All of these recipes are delicious and easy to prepare. And, they’re great for meal prep and making ahead. Enjoy my friends and stay warm!

      I really appreciate your beautiful photography and many of your recipes. However, I can’t help but notice that you are recycling many recipes under different headings like “mid-week dinners” or today’s hot winter recipes. I don’t want to scroll through so many to find any new ones and it’s hard to remember which ones I already have in my recipe file. Maybe you could have something titled “new recipes” to make it easier. I’m on a few other vegan web sites that are always coming up with brand new creative recipes and I have no doubt that you can too!
