As a big fan of Canadian cuisine, you might know they are huge on animal bi-products and most hardcore vegetarians feel left out. However, we can take a new approach to Canada’s most popular dishes with a vegan approach. In this article, you will see how to enjoy those delicious dishes in a more inclusive way.
Canadian Poutine
This a traditional comfort food everybody loves, and who can blame them? Poutine is basically French fries in cheese and beef gravy, although you can have vegan mozzarella and some brown gravy instead of the traditional option. This is one of those dishes that is an absolute no-brainer.
Kraft Dinner or Canadian Mac and Cheese
This is the Canadian equivalent of mac and cheese, as there are substantial amounts of melted cheese involved. Nonetheless, you can find many alternatives to replace the cheese itself or cook it yourself. The vegan dish includes red onions, yeast, garlic, coconut milk, olive oil, and your favourite spices.
Classic Dessert Butter Tart
This amazing pastry melts in your mouth and is crazily tasty. The original recipe involves lots of heavy butter to get the desired texture, but you can also do it with spelt flour and grapeseed oil. The outcome is going to be slightly different, but you will eat it in a heartbeat.
Nowadays, following a vegan diet can be really hard because almost all the tasty dishes from our childhood contain animal products. Nonetheless, you don’t need to give up. Although it could be hard at the beginning, you will find lots of animal product substitutes to create your own recipes.
