When traditional breakfasts revolve around eggs, dairy, and meat, it can be hard to find healthy and delicious vegan options. Sometimes cereal with soy milk isn’t going to cut it, and it doesn’t have to – your morning meal should be both nutritious and delicious. These vegan breakfast recipes provide the perfect balance of health and taste, making them ideal for early mornings or lazy weekends.

Smoothies are such a great breakfast because they’re quick to make and easy to take on the go! The recipe asks for kale, bananas, and avocado, but there are plenty of changes that can be made. If you want your smoothie to be creamier, consider adding soy milk, and if you want a nutritional boost, add in some spinach and flax seeds.
