Vegan Pizza Cheese Sauce. We made a new vegan cheese sauce!! This time it’s a pizza cheese sauce. This vegan pizza cheese sauce it seriously good!

It has all the flavors of a pizza. It would make a great dip too. I also think it would be great as a sauce for homemade pizzas. Just add your veggies on top. There are already plans to use it in future recipes. You guys have to try this one!

I know this sauce doesn’t look like much in the photo, but I promise it’s really good and flavorful! This dairy free cheese sauce is great for vegans or those with milk allergies. It’s also gluten free.

Easy Homemade Guacamole Recipe

This Easy Homemade Guacamole Recipe is super easy to make! Homemade guacamole is kind of like homemade hummus. It’s so easy to make, but it’s often bought because many people don’t realize how easy it is to make!

Once you try this easy guacamole recipe, you will never buy it at the store again. It literally takes only a few minutes! Plus you can control the ingredients.

We have chips and guacamole at just about every family gathering we go to, so it would be perfect for your holiday parties too. I don’t know of a single person that doesn’t care for guacamole or avocados in general. This recipe is so simple.

All you need is one bowl. No food processor or anything else. Unless you prefer to make it that way.

We love to eat this with fresh veggies or Beanitos. Yum! This guacamole should last about 3 days in the fridge.

Ours is usually gone the first day though! This guacamole would go perfect with my homemade Mary’s Gone Crackers.

Sun Dried Tomato Hummus

I have been on a huge sun dried tomato kick lately. This sun dried tomato hummus recipe is one of my favorite things lately. I have made it a couple times and I thought I would share it with all of you. Regular hummus can get a bit boring. So sometimes you have to mix it up a bit. If you like hummus, you may also like my Roasted Jalapeno Hummus.

This homemade hummus is so easy to make and tastes way better than any store bought brands. Hummus is also naturally vegan and gluten free. 🙂

Healthy French Onion Dip (Vegan)

Healthy French Onion Dip. French onion dip seems to be a staple at outdoor parties. Well I have made you a healthy French onion dip! Not only is this French onion dip healthy, but it is also vegan and dairy free.

This healthy vegan French onion dip is a cinch to make too! You only need a few simple ingredients! If you like this recipe, you may also like my dairy free ranch dressing and my dairy free sour cream.

To keep my French onion dip dairy free, I used cashews as a base. If you don’t have issues with dairy, you can use Greek yogurt as a base. I wanted to keep my homemade French onion dip vegan though. 🙂

You could serve this with raw veggies or chips like I used in the photo. The chips I used are Beanitos and they are delicious! They are a great alternative to regular potato chips.

Heathy Avocado Pesto Dip (Vegan)

I am a huge fan of avocados. So I made some avocado pesto dip. In my opinion, avocados make everything better.

Avocados are great on their own, in salads or smoothies. This avocado pesto is fantastic. It is oil free and dairy free.

I loved this healthy vegan pesto dip as a dip, but I could also see it being used as a sauce or maybe in a wrap as well. 🙂

If you are worried about the avocado browning, you can always squeeze a small amount of lemon juice onto it. I ate it for a second time today and it tasted great even though it had browned a little.

Thai Peanut Sauce. Who doesn’t love Thai food? Being vegan, Thai restaurants are a godsend because there is almost always something vegan on their menu.

This healthy vegan peanut sauce tastes just as good as the ones in the restaurants and it’s easy to make at home. Without the refined sugars or additives. 🙂 If you like this, you may also like my Homemade Sriracha Sauce.

We use a similar sauce to make our peanut noodle stir fry. It’s one of the most popular recipes on my blog. This healthy vegan peanut sauce would also make a great dipping sauce for just about anything.
