I’m not sure about you, but I love it when my pasta dishes are creamy. This easy vegan recipe definitely doesn’t fall short of that. Even though the specific recipe calls for zucchini as a pasta substitute, feel free to use whole grain pasta or even spaghetti squash. However, the zucchini noodles work perfectly if you’re looking for a healthier alternative. The pesto sauce is fresh and slightly citrusy, making for great flavor.

What’s better than two chocolate cake-like cookies with a vanilla filling? Whoopie pies are a classic fun dessert that I’m sure almost everyone loves. Making sure they are perfectly moist, creamy, and sweet can be a challenge even when using dairy. However, this recipe excludes all dairy products and still, the finishing product is just as tasty as the real thing. The filling is used by mixing dairy-free margarine, dairy-free cream cheese, confectioners sugar, and dairy-free vanilla yogurt.

If you’re having a gathering with friends and want to bring a dessert that everyone can enjoy, then this Oreo cheesecake is something you should seriously consider bringing. Even for a birthday party! My favorite thing about this cheesecake is the fact that there are crumbles of Oreos all throughout it, so with each bite, you’re getting a generous amount of chocolate and crunch.

When I’m ordering pizza, Margherita pizza is one of my go-to’s. This dairy-free pizza recipe is great because of the mock mozzarella cheese. The “cheese” is made from a small portion of cashews, water, nutritional yeast (which will give it that “cheesy” taste), salt, apple cider vinegar, and tapioca starch. When you mix all of these ingredients together, you’re going to be left with a gooey and stretchy creation! Not to mention the red sauce is fresh and full of flavor.

It’s time to get cheesy! This grilled cheese recipe is perfect if you’re looking to indulge in something tasty and simple. It’s also not your average grilled cheese. It has jalapeños slices in it, which will give it a nice little kick if you’re one that can handle spice. There are also two other dairy-free grilled cheese recipes included on the site, so if you’re not a fan of jalapeños, feel free to make any of the other ones instead.

A lot of people go crazy for lasagna and I’m definitely one of those people. This recipe, in particular, is great to bring to a house-warming party or a get together with family and friends. Believe me when I say the flavors are still there, even if you’re not using ricotta or mozzarella cheese.
