Hi Reader, Growing up in the South, comfort food was everything. Biscuits, gravy, casseroles, you name it. The flavors were rich, the portions were generous, and the food always came with a side of warmth and connection. These days, as someone who’s studied plant-based nutrition and lives on the veggie-loving side of the kitchen, I still crave those familiar, cozy dishes. But now I find comfort not just in the flavor, but in knowing the food I’m eating is nourishing, too! That’s exactly why I put together this new roundup of 27 Healthy Vegan Comfort Food Recipes. Think creamy pastas, hearty stews, soul-warming soups, and mashed potatoes and gravy. All 100% plant-based and many gluten-free or easily adaptable. When you’re craving something that feeds your body and your spirit, I think you’ll find something you love in this list. 🥰

One day Mark even mixed some into leftover orzo and raved about the...
Hi Reader, Do you like biscuits? Fluffy, tender, flaky, Southern-style biscuits? Growing up in Alabama, biscuits and gravy was easily my favorite "special" breakfast. 😍 My biscuit standards are pretty high, which is probably why it took me 7 years to get around to sharing a vegan biscuit recipe. 🫠 Also, since I don't cook with vegan butter very often (and I know many of you don't either), I knew I couldn't do it the usual way. It's easy enough to make biscuits with plant-based butter, but I...
Hi Reader, I have a fun new dessert recipe to share with you today. It's simple to make and almost too good! 😅 Cheesecake Pudding Tap for the recipe Initially, I'd planned to test the recipe with a base of silken tofu, similar to my tofu cheesecake. Then I realized I didn't have any silken tofu! I had just gone grocery shopping and wasn't about to go back. So I had to pivot... I knew cashews would taste amazing and create a really rich and creamy pudding. I also have a lot of almond flour on...
