Vegan recipes

Are you looking for meals that not only sound healthy but also taste really good? Then Vetain is absolutely the right place for you. We have a constantly growing collection of recipes that can win over you, your friends, and even your meat-loving uncle—we can’t promise that, of course, but our experience suggests it’s possible.

Plant-based eating is booming in Germany, and we’re really excited about that. More and more people are discovering that vegan doesn’t mean sacrifice—it means pure creativity and variety on your plate. Whether you’re looking for quick ideas for everyday meals, need to impress your in-laws with your cooking skills for the first time, or just feel like tackling a more elaborate weekend project — you’ll find delicious vegan recipes here for absolutely any occasion.

And if you’re just starting out on your vegan journey: don’t worry, we’ll guide you every step of the way.

At Vetain, we’re not here to convert you. We just want to show you that cooking vegan recipes can be really fun. Here’s what sets our vegan recipe ideas apart: Transparent ingredients, a growing library of vegan recipes for every taste, recipes that are easy to adapt to your everyday life, taste-tested — we try out new, delicious vegan recipes ourselves first

We also maintain high quality standards for our Vetain products, including our vegan protein powder, snacks like Oatbars and protein bars, and Vetain supplements. Some of these can even be used in our recipes. You’ll always find a note about this in the recipes. ;)

Can’t find the dish you’re looking for in our recipe collection yet? Feel free to reach out to us—we’re constantly testing new vegan recipes for you and our community. With every recipe, you can easily adjust the ingredients to suit your taste, so a basic recipe can quickly become your favorite dish.

Are you just starting out on your vegan cooking journey? No problem — we have plenty of simple, delicious vegan recipes to help you get started easily. Simple vegan recipes for beginners, in particular, show that vegan cooking isn’t rocket science — it’s often even simpler than you think.

For those of you who already have a bit more experience in vegan cooking, there are also more sophisticated dishes waiting for you to really let your creativity run wild. What’s important to us is making vegan recipes easily accessible, no matter what level you’re at. For example, if you’re trying plant-based cooking for the first time as part of Veganuary, you’ll find plenty of beginner-friendly ideas here.

And don’t worry: even if a dish doesn’t turn out right the first time, that’s just part of the process — we’ve over-salted more than a few curries before they turned out perfect. Of course, you can always reach out to us if you run into any problems!

You see “vegan bowl recipes,” “vegan dinner recipes,” “vegan recipes with rice,” “vegan lunch recipes,” or “vegan pasta recipes” everywhere, but you're not even vegan? You're thinking, “Meal prep and high-protein — yes, but vegan food? Not really”?

Then give it a try anyway — in any of our recipes, you can always swap out plant-based ingredients for animal-based ones if needed. But honestly: experience shows that our delicious vegan recipes win over even die-hard meat-eaters. A creamy mushroom risotto or a protein-packed pan-fried pizza simply tastes great to everyone, regardless of their diet. Vegan recipes are for anyone who wants to avoid animal products — but they’re just as much for anyone who simply wants to try something new. And let’s be honest: The next time your non-vegan guest eats at your place and asks afterward, “Where did you get this recipe?”, you’ll know exactly where to look. Have fun cooking and experimenting!
