spring

In this collection, you will find all of my best vegan recipes for the spring.

There are simple dinnes like vegan pasta with rose sauce, vegan spinach artichoke pizza, or green goddess bowls. For spring entertaining and get togethers, check out my spring lemon pasta salad, this bright green edamame dip or my dill pickle salad. Craving something sweet? This rhubarb mango crumble will hit the spot.

For even more seasonal vegan recipes, The First Mess Cookbook has plenty of inspiration.
