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:
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

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

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!

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!

Yeeeah. It took me some time to get this recipe posted. I guess this no butter no
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!
Blessings into 2019! x Dreena
