Vegan dishes prioritize plant-based ingredients, excluding all animal products like meat, dairy, and eggs. They often feature vegetables, legumes, grains, fruits, nuts, seeds, and plant-based proteins such as tofu, tempeh, and seitan. These dishes span global cuisines, from hearty Indian lentil curries to Mediterranean falafel, flavorful Mexican bean enchiladas, or comforting American plant-based burgers. Nutritionally, vegan dishes are typically rich in vitamins, minerals, fiber, and antioxidants, contributing to heart health, improved digestion, and overall vitality. Lower in saturated fat and cholesterol, they can aid in managing weight and lowering disease risk. However, they may require mindful planning to ensure adequate intake of protein, iron, vitamin B12, calcium, and omega-3s. When balanced and diverse, vegan meals offer delicious opportunities to enjoy healthy, ethical, and environmentally responsible eating.
