High protein and healthy vegan swaps for the food you love.

This vegan torta de auyama is the Venezuelan one — dense, custardy, spiced, and flipped out of the pan so a soft caramel runs down the sides. Each slice has 9 grams of protein and 135 calories, with no eggs, no dairy, and no refined […]

This vegan pumpkin soup is silky, sweet-savory, and built on a base of slow-sautéed leek, onion, and garlic. It’s topped with crispy panko, toasted pepitas, and a swirl of yogurt, and served with a melty soy chunk grilled cheese for dunking. The full plate is […]

This vegan marry me orzo is everything the viral dish is supposed to be: creamy, garlicky, packed with sun-dried tomatoes and spinach, and topped with jammy air-fryer confit cherry tomatoes. My crispy seared soy chunks bring it to 43g of protein per bowl for 532 […]

These pistachio banana muffins are soft, domed and loaded with toasty chopped pistachios on top. They have 9g of protein for 184 calories. They’re gluten-free and naturally sweetened with ripe banana and allulose, and they’re ready in about 45 minutes. This is version 6. Seriously. […]
