Valentine’s Day is right around the corner. Are you ready?
Whether you’re celebrating this special holiday with friends, family, a significant other, or in the company of yourself, let’s make it a day to get a little fancy and enjoy some decadence, shall we?
While some of you may choose to go out on Valentine’s Day, I prefer to stay in. After years of working in restaurants and bakeries, I know the craziness of this holiday. From the service side of it, this holiday is not very fun.
So I’ll be cooking a romantic vegan meal at home this year. If you’re staying in like me, I’ve made it a little bit easier. I’ve rounded up some of my favorite Vegan Valentine’s Day Recipes from the blog. Here you’ll find mouth-watering recipes from breakfast to dessert and everything in between to make it a delicious and decadent day of love.

Breakfast in bed or a decadent morning brunch is one of my favorite ways to say, “you are awesome!” By taking the time to cherish breakfast with your loved ones, you are choosing to start the day by slowing down and celebrating what truly matters. Say, “no” to the to-do lists and stressful morning routines and enjoy a delicious Valentine’s Day breakfast. Here are a few vegan breakfast recipes to get you started:
- Vegan French Toast
- 10-Minute Chocolate Chip Banana Pancakes

Since my parents are visiting this valentine’s day, I want to prepare something special. This post is very timely as this is what I was looking for. Thank you for sharing this. I am leaning towards preparing Mushroom Stroganoff and hot fudge espresso cake.
