    a collage of four easy vegan recipes for beginners

    Transitioning to a vegan lifestyle can be a bit intimidating at first. I still vividly remember when I became vegan back in 2013. So many new ingredients and a new way of cooking!

    I’ve got a whole category for you on the blog that talks about going vegan. You will find interesting facts about veganism, easy vegan recipes to start your vegan journey, and all you need to know about how to go vegan. So check it out! 

    In this post, I’ve covered you with 10 easy vegan recipes for beginners that everyone can make. 

    For those of you who miss meat, try my vegan meatballs and my vegan cauliflower wings. And I’ve also included a recipe for vegan cream cheese that tastes so much like regular cream cheese. And of course vegan cookies and vegan pasta recipes. 

    So let’s get started! 

    1. Spaghetti with Vegan Meatballs
