My Go-To Vegan Recipes

I'm a vegetarian who sometimes likes the challenge of eating a vegan diet. A lot of people don't get what vegans eat. They think that there is no other food besides meat and animal products. I'm here to prove that theory wrong. These are a few of my favorite filling vegan meals.

1. Sticky Sesame Cauliflower

This recipe is essentially General Tso's chicken, but vegan. Cauliflower is a great alternative to meat because it sucks up the flavor of whatever you cook it with. In this case, the sauce packs a flavorful punch.

2. Sweet Potato And Zucchini Fritters

These fritters are perfect with the mustard sauce of the recipe or just plain old ketchup. The crunch on the outside of each fritter is to die for. Throw it on a bun with some lettuce and tomato and call it a veggie burger. Although the original recipe requires an egg, there is a vegan option using an egg replacement.

3. Zoodles With Creamy Avocado Pesto

Who doesn't love to bury their sorrows in a big bowl of pasta? With the sauce on top, its hard to tell that the "noodles" are actually made up of 95% water. Any vegan recipe that has the word "creamy" in the description has me hooked. Not only is this dish delicious, but it is extremely healthy.

4. Vegan Mac And Cheese


This recipe comes from YouTuber Ingrid Nilsen. Its one of my favorite comfort food recipes. This "cheesy" taste comes from the use of nutritional yeast. It doesn't taste exactly like cheese, but regardless it is delicious. Not only does she make awesome videos, but she is also an awesome role model for young women. Go check her out!

5. Mexican Black Bean Burger


I'm not normally a fan of mexican food, but this burger is as close as it gets to the real thing. It's packed with spicy flavor and is very filling. Pair it with some fries and ketchup and you got yourself a vegan barbecue.

6. Brownies


Okay yum. I will admit, it can be difficult to find vegan chocolate chips but this is so worth it. I mean, come on, just look at that chocolate-y goodness.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
