Are you always on the hunt for quick, easy, and healthy vegan dinner recipes? Me too! That’s why I decided to gather this collection of fresh and delicious vegan recipes that take 20 minutes from start to finish.
This list assumes you don’t have anything already prepped and in the fridge – no leftover brown rice or quinoa, say – though a world of fast-dinner possibilities opens up when you do! A couple of the recipes do rely on ready-made, store-bought items like pizza crusts, tortillas, and vegetable broth. But for the most part, we’ve got from-scratch goodness right here, on the table in 20 minutes flat. Or less! A busy plant-based eater’s dream come true.
