The vegan place to discuss things.

Veganism is a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude—as far as is possible and practicable—all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of animals, humans and the environment. In dietary terms it denotes the practice of dispensing with all products derived wholly or partly from animals.

Recs for Vegan Recipe Sites? (piefed.social)

Hey all,

Obligatory not a vegan, though I am wanting to move more in the direction of fully doing so, kinda in a transition phase atm where I'm figuring out what dishes I can make that I enjoy, and that's the issue I'm kinda dealing with currently that's preventing me from doing a full swap.

I was wondering what websites y'all recommend for vegan recipes. I recently came across Veggieboards, which is a great resource, but beyond that I'm a bit lost. I'm hoping to find more simple recipes since I'm just starting out in the kitchen and trying to get a hang of things. As an example, I've recently been trying to make hummus at home, and I quite literally need to smooth the recipe a bit since it came out lumpy when I made it last. Another example is black bean burgers, where getting them to hold together/firm up has been a pain despite how good they taste.

Thanks in advance!

Kitchen Stories to start off, as it gives you just the ingredients and recipe. You can often swap out a lot of the vegetarian ingredients for vegan ones!
Supercook will help you cook with whatever you have at home. It takes a little while to set up and filter, but it can be handy in a pinch.
If you have iPhone, “Crouton” is the best recipe storage app I have used. I put everything there now. When I had an Android I used “JustTheRecipe” and it was pretty good.

Please do not suggest a vegetarian resource on the instance. Vegnews has great suggestions.
