By the time fall comes around, salads and other light summer meals aren’t nearly as appealing to me anymore.
This is when soups, beans, mushrooms, squash, and big bowls of pasta start making their way back to our table.
These vegan fall recipes include everything from mushroom shepherd’s pie and white bean soup to risotto and easy one-pan dinners.
Mushroom Lentil Shepherd’s Pie
This is probably my favorite fit for a fall dinner on this list. Mushrooms and lentils make up the filling, with a layer of creamy mashed potatoes on top. It’s hearty enough that you really don’t miss the meat.
Turnip and White Bean Soup
Turnips don’t get nearly as much attention as potatoes, but they’re great in a fall soup. This one combines them with white beans and vegetables for a simple one-pot meal. Add some crusty bread on the side and dinner is done.
Vegan Tuscan Butter Beans With Spinach
Butter beans work really well when you want something filling without using meat. This recipe combines them with spinach in a creamy Tuscan-style sauce. It’s especially good with some bread for soaking up the sauce.
One-Skillet Pizza Beans
This is basically what happens when beans meet pizza. It’s warm, filling, and everything is made in one skillet, which makes it a good choice for a weeknight dinner when it’s already getting dark outside far too early.
Sheet Pan Broccoli and Tofu
For something a little lighter, try this sheet pan broccoli and tofu. Everything cooks together on one pan, so there’s not much cleanup afterward. It’s an easy way to get a warm vegan dinner on the table without making a big meal.
One-Pot Pepper Pasta
Pasta is an easy choice once colder weather arrives, and this one keeps things simple by cooking everything in one pot. The peppers add plenty of flavor while keeping the ingredient list fairly basic.
