Hello Veggie Lovers, today we will be diving into the best plant based products that you must try if you are vegan or newly vegan and are looking to expand your plant based options.

There are so many amazing vegan foods out there, you may be surprised by just how many options there are.

Here are just a few examples of some of the foods vegans eat.

Dairy Substitutes

Some people might like to use unsweetened non-dairy milk for all-purpose use in savory cooking, baking, and smoothies.

This can also be great to add to tea, coffee, or for enjoying straight.

Experiment with all kinds of non-dairy milks and choose whichever plant-based milk you enjoy the most.

Soy milk is great because it’s high in protein and mimics the nutritional profile of cow’s milk.

Vanilla, chocolate or other flavors are great for sweetening and flavoring coffee.

Vegetables

Make sure you are picking up a few vegetables to eat raw in salads, sandwiches, or with dips.

Leafy greens such as kale, lettuce, and spinach are great to incorporate into any of your plant based meals.

Frozen vegetables are also great to include in your diet.

They are a great staple and are very versatile.

Frozen produce is typically more nutrient dense than fresh produce, because it’s flash frozen at its peak ripeness.
