Veganism is typically talked about as being extreme, unhealthy, and tasteless. All which are very false, especially the latter. As a food lover and vegan, I have found that these two are not mutually exclusive. I don’t have to compromise the abundance of delicious foods in order to live a cruelty-free lifestyle. I’m not trying to convince you to be vegan; I’m just saying that every once in a while, even meat eaters should indulge in the power of plant-based goodness.So here are the top seventeen easy and delicious vegan takes on your typical brunch foods — I dare you not to drool.This piece originally appeared on Spoon University.

Not only is this tasty and cruelty free, but it is also a healthier alternative to the typical parfait. Use “ nice cream“ to make it healthier and alter the flavour to your liking, or you can also use any dairy free ice cream (thank you Ben and Jerry).

Sweet Potato Breakfast Sandwich

It’s a sad world when you think all there is in a perfect breakfast sandwich is eggs and bacon. Going vegan has only expanded my appreciation for food. I recommend switching out the typical bacon and eggs part of the sandwich for roasted sweet potato. Get the recipe.
