How to Celebrate World Vegan Day

Looking for ways to take care of the earth, your body, and helpless animals all at the same time? Then look no further than World Vegan Day!

Vegan Day is an opportunity to promote the benefits of a vegan diet and veganism in general. Although this might sound complicated, it really doesn’t have to be! Getting started can be easy, by just having a green veggie salad for lunch instead of that burger. Use coconut oil instead of butter for cooking, and substitute soy, oat, or almond milk for dairy milk. It’s easier than most people think!

• Vegan Mac & Cheese. One of the biggest barriers to people becoming vegan is cheese, which is understandable because cheese is so tasty. However, when using this type of recipe, no one will miss the cheese! The sauce is made from vegan friendly ingredients such as grated potato, avocado oil, raw cashews and some spices. Delish!
• Vegan Peanut Butter Cookie Bars. A lot of people think their baking will suffer without the use of milk, eggs and butter. But it doesn’t have to! These use peanut butter, almond flour, cocoa, walnuts and dates.
• Butternut Squash Chipotle Chili. With a base of squash, peppers, cashews and beans, this chili is perfectly topped off with tortilla chips and avocado chunks on the side.
• No Bake Cookies. An easy family favorite, these chocolate, oat and peanut butter cookies use almond milk and coconut oil as a substitute for the milk and butter. No one will even notice the difference!
