Spring is one of my favorite times of year. There’s so much to celebrate, like Easter and Mother’s Day, not to mention the longer, sunnier days and the blooming flowers!
It’s also the time of year I can’t help but crave the crisp snap of asparagus, the sweetness of fresh strawberries, and the bright pop of lemon. I’m taking more and more trips to the farmers’ markets and grocery stores just to pick up as much gorgeous spring produce as I can get my hands on.
After a long winter of soups, stews, and other vegan comfort foods, I’m ready for something lighter. Whether I’m hosting a sunny Sunday brunch with Vegan Blueberry Scones or packing Chickpea Salad Sandwiches for my family, this round-up of 40+ Vegan Spring Recipes has something for every spring occasion.
