Vegan food can be delicious and healthy, but you have to have the right recipes. Here at The Natural Foodie, I’ve gathered some of my favorite vegan food recipes to share with you. Whether you have an upcoming dinner with a vegan guest or you want some fresh recipes for your own vegan experience, you’re sure to enjoy these dishes.
Season Your Dishes for Deliciousness
Vegan food sometimes has an unfortunate reputation for being bland and tasteless. But if you use natural flavors correctly, your food can be both healthy and delicious.
The following vegan recipes use seasoning to create dishes that everyone can enjoy, whether they’re vegan or not. From the smoky tomato flavor of the Indian-Style Green Beans to the curry powder spice of my Trinidad Curry Pumpkin, you’ll find a range of flavors to sample and experiment with. You can even make your own vegan seasoning to add to other recipes with my Trinidad Green Seasoning recipe!
Some other family favorites include my Lentil Recipe and Roasted Cauliflower Recipe. You’ll also find that you can alter most of these recipes to become baby food. Make sure to check the instruction cards for the recipes to find out how.

Vegan food is suitable for all ages, so you’ll find some excellent recipes for the whole family to enjoy. Feel free to explore the recipes listed below, and get inspired to create some vegan recipes of your very own.
