This easy vegan butter recipe will give any of the commercial vegan butters a run for their money, with great taste and fewer ingredients!

So many people have asked “Can you cook pasta right in the sauce in the Instant Pot?” and the answer is yes! You can cook the sauce and pasta together at the same time in an Instant Pot! Here’s how! We call this a Costco recipe because we use one or more ingredients from Costco, but of course you don’t have to.

These brown rice spinach veggie burgers are not only delicious, vegan, and gluten-free, but they are so easy to make!

If you have a sweet tooth, or are just craving something sweet, or have kids who you are trying to wean away from processed sugar, then this Vegan German Chocolate Fudge should fill the bill. Of course in addition to being vegan it’s gluten-free (after all, we’re the Happy Gluten-Free…

As we have dedicated our explorations with our new Ninja Creami to lazy vegans everywhere, we have determined to discover as many “dump and freeze” things as we can, giving rise to our “Will it Creami?” series of posts and recipes. Today we are turning our attention to that unsung hero of the tofu world, the shelf-stable silken tofu. We can just hear you now: “Tofu in ice cream??” Yes, our pretties, tofu not only in ice cream, but tofu as ice cream! We promise that it will blow your mind, because it’s actually deeeelicious!

A vegan caramel sauce recipe made with olive oil and maple syrup?? Yes! And our twist on it brings it to a whole new level of foodgasm!The Internet is a’buzz with @fitgreenmind’s viral TikTok video showing a very simple recipe, or hack if you will, of taking olive oil, maple syrup, and a pinch of salt, and turning it into smooth, delicious caramel sauce. Now, this is not as outlandish as it may seem at first glance. Traditional caramel sauce recipes nearly all call for butter, cream, and sugar. In other words, to make a delicious caramel sauce you need fat and something sweet. In the olive oil and maple syrup recipe, the olive oil takes the place of the fat from the butter and cream, while the maple syrup provides the something sweet, and together they provide the mouthfeel.

This easy recipe can be done two ways to yield either delicious vegan and gluten-free ginger snaps, or vegan, gluten-free hermit cookies. In case you’re not familiar with hermits, they are a sweet, spicey, raisin-studded cookie or bar that was popular in (and probably originated in) New England. Of course, they were neither vegan nor gluten-free, as are ours.

Of all of the best millet recipes, this one is tops in our opinion! Easy, simple, and delicious, our Simple Sweet Millet recipe is nourishing and packed with protein and other nutrients! Serve it for breakfast or as a dessert! Shhhh, they’ll never know their dessert is so good for them!

One of the coolest things about the shelf-stable, aseptic-boxed Mori-Nu organic silken tofu is how utterly versatile it is. Yet this unsung hero of the vegan world is often overlooked, passed by on store shelves for its water-packed, refrigerated cousins. Hopefully our easy creamy vegan salad dressing and dip recipe will change that! (By the way, the Mori-Nu organic silken tofu is considered ‘soft tofu’; it doesn’t say it anywhere on the box but that has been confirmed by Mori-nu. This is important to know as there is such a thing as firm silken tofu and even extra-firm silken tofu.)

Our baked pumpkin custard is super easy to make, has an incredible silky texture, and of course is both gluten-free and vegan! You can serve it plain, or dress it up with vegan whipped topping or vanilla ice cream; sometimes we even top it with some of our Super-Easy, Super-Awesome Homemade Fresh Cranberry Sauce, it’s super yummy!

After perfecting our gluten-free vegan bread (no yeast, either!), we were hankering for some rye bread, and we figured out that our basic bread recipe was hearty enough to masquerade as rye bread if we just added some caraway seeds. But then we also started craving some sourdough bread but without, you know, both the hassle of keeping a sourdough starter alive, not to mention trying to make it gluten-free. And that’s when we realized that our magic secret ingredient could do the trick!

Vegan meringue? Yes! If you haven’t heard of aquafaba, you are in for a delightful surprise! It’s very easy to make vegan meringue! Here’s how!

We did it! Building on the blender bread craze, we created the holy grail of breads: easy gluten-free vegan white bread! How easy is it? You throw all of the ingredients in a blender (hence the term “blender bread”), blend it, then pour the batter into your loaf pans! That’s how easy it is! And you get honest-to-goodness gluten-free white bread!

This dish has a decidedly southwestern flavor owing to the combination of pumpkin, pumpkin seeds, and green chili. It’s delicious, and so good for you! We use soy curls to make this, but you can also use cubed tofu. You can either cook this on the stove top, or in a slow cooker (if you have an Instant Pot you can use the slow cook function on it).

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! Made with brown rice flour, unsweetened coconut flakes or shreds, and chopped dried pineapple, the ingredients are simple and clean. The result is a delicious, melt-in-your mouth cookie that you need not feel guilty about making, eating, and serving to your family!
