Best Vegan Recipes 2018

Before we begin a new year with new recipes, how about a little love for the best vegan recipes of the year?

I’m counting down the hottest 8 recipes from my site for 2018, beginning with:

8. The Great Pumpkin Pie!

This gluten-free, oil-free luscious pumpkin pie kicks off the countdown!

Every Thanksgiving I hear from new readers that try this recipe for the first time and are so excited to have a dairy-free, egg-free pumpkin pie recipe that is truly wholesome and delicious.

I say why wait for the holidays for pumpkin pie?! In fact, bookmark this recipe for February when you spot a can of pureed pumpkin sitting in your pantry!

7. Healthy Rice Krispie Treats

I first created these ‘nicer krispie squares’ for my cookbook eat, drink & be vegan. The original recipe used macadamia nut butter. Later, I created a nut-free version for Plant-Powered Families. This is now my favorite version!

Make these! You will think you are enjoying a traditional krispie square with marshmallows and butter… it’s food magic!

6. Vegan Feta

This is also a recipe from Plant-Powered Families. If you were a feta lover, you must try this one out! Not just for salads, add it to pasta bakes or crumbled on pizzas, or with spuds. It’s spectacular!

5. Breakfast Rice Pudding

Now here’s a lesser-known recipe to many of you. For some reason this rice pudding gets a lot of attention on youtube.

This rice pudding makes a wonderful, cozy breakfast through cold months. Or, sweeten a touch more for a wholesome dessert!

4. Soups, Soups, and more Soups!

I’m not entirely sure which recipe in this post is getting all the love! Why not try all of them? #goodplan!

3. Vegan Butter Chicken

Yeeeah. It took me some time to get this recipe posted. I guess this no butter no chikcen was worth the wait? Seems to be, coming in at number three!

2. Teriyaki Vegetable Stir-Fry

There were a few recipes I expected to be in this rundown. (Actually, I’m shocked this one wasn’t here! – Perhaps I didn’t remind you all enough on social media about it) 😋

I’m not at all surprised to see this teriyaki stir-fry on the list. I often hear from folks about it. Why? It’s easy, healthy stuff, and the sauce is delicious! Better than take-out? You bet!

DRUM ROLL! The top vegan recipe of 2018?…

1. Chocolate Sweet Potato Cake

Every day I get a message on email, the blog, or social media about this cake! It’s a PPF sensation!

Bake it. And while you’re at it, bake the Crazy Brownies – because they are at the top of my list!

You have a different pick? What would you add to this list of favorites?
