Vegan Dinner Ideas
The rise of veganism and the global desire to eat clean and sustainably, has seen the mixing, roasting, toasting and baking up of a wonderful myriad of delicious vegan dinner ideas. Now more than ever, the vegan diet is enjoying total variety of choice in taste, texture and worldly flavours. With no meat or animal by-product in sight, vegan dinner options are topping the choice for sustainable eating, and because they're just as easy to make as they are scrumptious, it seems plant-based meals are going to keep growing in choice and popularity.
So, whether you're looking to expand your choices in vegan dishes for dinner, or if you're new to this and need to answer the question, ‘what can I have for dinner as a vegan?’, we've put together a quick list of utterly yummy vegan dinner ideas, for you to have a bash at. Let’s have a look.
Vegan Dinner Options
We're calling it the vegan dinner revolution, and it’s becoming a global phenomenon in food, and the rising shift to sustainable eating. And incredible vegan dinner ideas are being invented every day – just like these:
Buffalo Cauliflower Tacos
A vegan buffalo sauce coats roasted cauliflower bites that are tucked into a fluffy toasted tortilla. Red cabbage is added for colour, with tomatoes, avocado and fresh coriander, and lastly a drizzle of vegan ranch dressing with a twist of lime, to spike the senses into the realm of sublimity. You won't believe what this one will do to your taste buds.
Vegan lasagne
An iteration of a global Mediterranean favourite, the vegan lasagne benefits from the inimitable delectability of young vegetables that grow to perfect tenderness in the springtime. Fresh green asparagus spears, spinach and baby marrow all come together in a rich bechamel sauce made from almond milk. If that does not induce a chef’s kiss right away, we don't know what will.
Vegan Burger with Garlic Sweet Potato Wedges
The vegan burger has a perfectly blended chickpea and sweetcorn patty as the hero of the dish. Topped with some fresh greens of your choice, and all on a golden-brown oat topped bun – this is a totally inspired, and healthy version of the classic pub fare favourite. And then, to cap off that classic marrying of the ‘burger and chips’, we've thrown in some crispy sweet potato wedges.
Is there anything better?
Tofu and Vegetable Stir Fry
An even cleaner eating version of the classic dish, here tofu heroes the lot, with a host of bright, deliciously al-dente vegetables, ginger, garlic and soy sauce complementing the mix. Throw in (and we do) some honey for sweetness, and sesame seeds and peanuts for a genuine Asian flair, and you have a rainbow stir-fry of epic proportion, and portion.
Tuck in – a taste sensation awaits you.
