You try out just about every vegan pasta recipe you can find, you try out just about every vegan potato recipe you can find, you try out, and you try out just about every vegan rice dish you can find – and then you get bored.
But, if you’re living a busy life, or doing a lot of cardio exercise, you still need to get a decent carb intake for your energy levels.
So the question is, what other carb-based foods can you have on the vegan diet?
Well, I believe I have the answer! Why not start checking out vegan gnocchi recipes?
Technically, gnocchi is usually considered a pasta, but taste and texture-wise, it’s more like a potato. And it’s yummy – the perfect comfort food!
I’ve been doing my homework, scouring the internet for the best vegan gnocchi recipes out there, and testing them out, and I can’t wait to share them with you!
This Tuscan vegan gnocchi dish has a wonderful variety of textures and flavors thanks to ingredients such as pillowy soft gnocchi, combined with vegan sausage, in a flavorful creamy garlic sauce with fresh spinach and sun dried tomatoes.
It’s also got coconut milk, lemon juice, Italian seasoning, fresh basil leaves, and vegan Parmesan cheese.
It’s ready to eat in as little as 20 minutes, making it the perfect dish for a busy weeknight.
It may be relatively high in calories, but as far as I’m concerned, it’s 100% worth it!

Hi, my name is Kimberly Kidd and I love to cook and eat delicious, nutritious meals featuring natural, organic plants.
Since my sister introduced me to vegan cooking four years ago, I have discovered so many delicious alternatives to the traditional meaty meals I used to eat.
Today I enjoy trying and making my own vegan-friendly alternatives. If my sister can do it, then so can I (and you can, too). It is easier than you may think, promise!
