I don’t know about you, but I’m particularly interested in rice dishes. I often find that rice can be more filling and satisfying than vegetables. And it’s such a much better and healthier source of carbs than some of the alternatives, such as fries cooked in grease.
So with this in mind, I took to the internet to discover more vegan rice recipes to add to my collection. And of course, I figured I’d share my findings with you. I’ve tried them all out, so I’ve verified for myself whether they’re worthy of a spot on my shortlist.
And without further ado, get those taste buds ready, because here we go!

Hi, I’m Eve Mason and I’ve been a vegan since almost five years now.I can honestly say that veganism has changed my life for the better.The past few years I’ve been on a quest to find affordable vegan friendly food.Fortunately, meat-free alternatives have now become available in most supermarkets, which has made my life a lot easier.
I love cooking at home, but for those who don’t like cooking at all, there are more and more restaurants that offer vegan options as well nowadays.
I hope you enjoy my website and have fun preparing your own homemade vegan meals.
