What to cook in February – the perfect month to cosy up with hearty, comforting vegan recipes. Make the most of the season’s freshest produce.
In this What to Cook in February blog post, I dive into plant-based dishes that celebrate winter staples. Think February produce like squash, mushrooms, apples and citrus fruits. From delicious breakfasts and easy vegan soup recipes to decadent desserts, these recipes prove that vegan meals can be both satisfying and full of flavour. Whether you’re meal planning for the week or looking for easy vegan breakfast ideas, this collection has something for everyone to enjoy this February!
We have a combination of healthy and fresh alongside decadent and comforting. February in season produce lends itself perfectly to so many easy vegan recipes. We’ve got make ahead breakfasts and light, easy lunches. There’s also hearty and warming soups, simple but delicious dinners. And some of my favourite cosy and comforting spiced winter baking recipes!
