Vegan Halloween recipes - The Fitnessista

Sharing a roundup of 10 delicious vegan Halloween recipes.

Hi hi! How are ya? I hope you’re having a lovely morning! It’s officially feeling like fall around here and I’m so excited for upcoming Halloween and holiday events. What do you have going on this month? Do you have your costume picked out yet?

Halloween, with spooky decorations and playful costumes, is one of the most anticipated holidays of the year. Amidst the sugary treats and snacks that typically dominate the scene (ooey gooey sticky caramel apples ring a bell?), I like to include vegan Halloween-themed treats for friends who are dairy-free or avoid animal products. I’ve shared several non-vegan Halloween treats, like these fun Halloween Rice Krispie Treats, today is for my plant-based, veggie friends. (BTW, I’m the non-vegan who loves vegan foods and treats!)

Today, I’m excited to share a roundup of ten delightful vegan recipes to perfect for Halloween festivities!
