Whether you call it nougat, Torrone, nogat, or something else, it’s rarely vegan, being, as it is, made with egg whites and honey. Until now. Our vegan soft nougat recipe is going to make you and your tastebuds so happy! And the best thing about it is that it is infinitely customizable! The vegan nougat that we made and that is featured in our picture is pistachio chocolate swirl nougat, but really the sky’s the limit! Traditional nougat has almonds and sometimes a bit of flavoring like lavender or orange essence. Here’s our easy, completely vegan soft nougat recipe!

Our vegan copycat oats overnight protein oatmeal recipe (also a copycat for Mush, Ono, and the rest) has all of the protein and other perks of Oats Overnight and Ono, plus several advantages over the little, individual Oats Overnight and other packets that you can order either from their websites or on places like Amazon. And unlike other copycat overnight oats recipes, our recipe is not too powdery or chalky or bulky, has a good oats-to-protein-powder ratio, and, of course, is vegan. Yes, that’s right, we cracked the “how to get 20g of protein into a serving of oatmeal without it gagging you” secret.

Have you ever wished that there could be vegan pill pockets for your dog? Of course none of the commercially available pill pockets are vegan, so we are going to give you a simple recipe to make your own, and, as a bonus, a pointer to an alternative that you can buy and use if you don’t want to make your own (for example if you only need to give your dog a few pills, not a daily pill).

Our gluten-free, vegan lentil walnut burgers are easy to make, and baked in the oven! (Of course you can also fry them if you prefer.) Plus they are made from all shelf-stable ingredients that you likely already have in your pantry, so that you can whip them up whenever you want. And they hold together beautifully, so you can have no fear that they will crumble when you bite into them. Serve them on a bun, or a bed of greens (as we did here), or any way that you like!

Our gluten-free vegan coconut macadamia pineapple cookie recipe has a lovely shortbread texture, and a delicious light tropical flavor!

You are not going to believe how easy, delicious, and fast our 2-ingredient vegan tomato cream sauce recipe is! Of course, we use this vegan tomato cream sauce for pasta (we love it with the Costco Banza chickpea pasta) but you can use it for whatever you’d like. Smother a vegan meatloaf in it, make it the basis for an extra special, creamy vegan lasagna, or even use it as a soup base! Want to make a vegan version of the famous vodka tomato sauce? No problem, just change this to a 3-ingredient tomato cream sauce by adding some vodka (we include instructions for that as well). To quote a certain popular 70s and 80s band, “Any way you want it…”.

No-bake chocolate oatmeal cookies are a classic recipe, but of course most recipes for them aren’t vegan, as the traditional no-bake oatmeal cookies contain both milk and butter. Now we have veganized them, and made them even yummier and better for you by using raw cacao instead of cocoa, and so we have turned these wonderful (and fast and easy) treats into gluten-free and vegan no-bake chocolate oatmeal cookies!

What are dan dan noodles? First, you need to know that you will LOVE our recipe for gluten-free vegan dan dan noodles (a/k/a dan dan mein or dan dan mian), whether you know what dan dan noodles are or not, whether you’ve ever had them before or not.

It’s easy to find a recipe for vegan hot fudge, but finding a recipe for old-fashioned hot fudge sauce, the kind made nearly a century ago, is a lot harder, because those recipes were a lot scarcer. So we rounded up a cookbook from 1938, and found the hot fudge sauce recipe therein, and veganized it!

Our mazamorra cordobesa recipe is as close to the ancient, authentic recipe as you can get. Mazamorra cordobesa (also sometimes called Cordobense mazamorra) is an ancient recipe for almond and bread soup, served cold and garnished with various garnishes. Now there are many different types of mazamorra, and depending on where you are it may be a drink made from corn (Columbia), a custard (Puerto Rico), a porridge (Costa Rica) or even a dessert (Argentina). But in Spain, and in particular in Cordoba, it is a cold soup, originally served to Roman troops and people working the fields, and made from a few simple ingredients: almonds, stale bread, garlic, a bit of vinegar, and olive oil. And it is astonishingly delicious!

Did you know that it’s really, really easy to make mochi? Also most mochi is naturally gluten-free and vegan, although sometimes things are stuffed inside the mochi which are not (like ice cream). Our recipe is for matcha mochi, but if you prefer to not include the matcha, just omit it!

Whether you call it Texas Caviar, or Cowboy Caviar or, as we do, Cheating Cowboy caviar, our Cowboy Caviar is easy to make, and even easier than most because of the cheating aspect of it (and now you know why we call it Cheating Cowboy Caviar). You will note that this is also designated as a ‘quarantine recipe’, which means that all of the ingredients are shelf-stable and non-perishable!

Everybody needs adequate good fat in their diet, yet many people don’t get enough good fat, or even pay attention to the amount of fat they eat on a daily basis. While the term “fat bomb” may not be familiar to you (unless you or someone you know is doing a keto diet), homemade vegan fat bombs are a great way to help make sure that your body gets enough of the good fat that it needs for brain and organ function, vitamin and nutrient absorption, and hormone and energy production.
