10 Delicious Vegan Summer Recipes
In this blog post, I am sharing with you some of my favorite vegan summer recipes.
1. Kale Salad with Peanut Sauce
I am a kale fan and I love a good kale salad. The best thing about summer is eating salads all the time. I always feel a bit healthier in summer from eating so many salads and fruits!
This Kale Salad with Peanut Sauce is a perfect summer dish that’s both refreshing and satisfying. Fresh, crunchy kale is tossed with a creamy, flavorful peanut sauce, making it a delightful mix of textures and tastes.
The rich, nutty sauce complements the slight bitterness of the kale, creating a delicious and nutritious salad that’s perfect for a light lunch or side dish.
2. Vegan Mango Muffins
One of my favorite summer fruits are mangoes. I also like baking with mangoes and last summer I made these healthy vegan mango muffins which I know you will love!
Vegan Mango Muffins are a fantastic way to enjoy the sweet, juicy flavors of summer mangoes. These muffins are moist and tender, with chunks of fresh mango in every bite. They’re a perfect treat for breakfast or a midday snack, offering a tropical twist that makes them irresistible.
3. Roasted Tomatoes with almond basil crust
This dish is so summery and delicious. When tomatoes are in season this is a great side dish to make along with a vegan BBQ. I got inspired by French Provence tomatoes. This vegan side dish is on repeat at my house in summer.
Roasted Tomatoes with Almond Basil Crust is a simple yet flavorful dish that highlights the natural sweetness of ripe summer tomatoes. The tomatoes are roasted until tender and juicy, then topped with a crunchy almond and basil crust that adds a delicious texture and a burst of fresh, herbal flavor. This dish makes a great appetizer or side.
4. Mango Galette
This incredible vegan mango galette recipe is one of my most popular Summer recipes!
This Mango Galette is a rustic, free-form tart that’s both beautiful and delicious. Slices of fresh mango are arranged on a flaky, buttery crust and baked until golden. The natural sweetness of the mango is enhanced by a light dusting of sugar, making this dessert a delightful way to enjoy summer’s bounty.
5. Vegan Berry Nut-free Crumble
When the berry season is at its peak at the end of summer and you have too many I recommend making my vegan berry nut-free crumble. Delicious with summer berries.
Vegan Berry Nut-free Crumble is a perfect dessert for those who love the combination of sweet, juicy berries and a crispy, crumbly topping.
This recipe uses a mix of summer berries, topped with a crunchy oat crumble that’s free from nuts, making it a safe and tasty option for those with allergies. Serve it warm with a scoop of vegan ice cream for a real treat.
6. Mini Vegan Lemon Muffins With Poppyseeds
This recipe is so delicious. These Mini Vegan Lemon Muffins with Poppyseeds are light, fluffy, and bursting with fresh lemon flavor.
The poppyseeds add a subtle crunch, making these mini muffins a delightful snack or breakfast option. They’re easy to make and perfect for sharing at summer gatherings.
7. Vegan Avocado Coconut Cucumber Gazpacho Soup
A healthy vegan coconut gazpacho to have before a meal in summer or as a light lunch. Nothing more refreshing!
Vegan Avocado Coconut Cucumber Gazpacho Soup is a cool and creamy soup that’s perfect for hot summer days. The combination of avocado, coconut milk, and cucumber creates a refreshing and silky texture, while a hint of lime adds a bright, zesty flavor. This chilled soup is a great starter or light meal.
8. Strawberry Galette
I love a good galette and Summer is the best for making stone-fruit galettes or berry galettes like this strawberry galette.
A Strawberry Galette is a simple yet elegant dessert that showcases the sweetness of fresh summer strawberries. The strawberries are arranged on a rustic, flaky crust and baked until bubbly and golden. This dessert is easy to make and perfect for any summer occasion.
9. Raw Vegan Nectarine Tarts
This is such a good vegan summer recipe combining raw vegan (means no oven needed!) and in-season nectarines! This recipe is a keeper!

10. Raw Vegan Caramel Chocolate Tart
Making raw desserts in summer is the best as you don’t need to use the oven and heat up your house! Eating raw desserts is also cooling and I think this raw vegan caramel chocolate tart goes really well with summer raspberries!
The Raw Vegan Caramel Chocolate Tart is a decadent dessert that’s surprisingly healthy.
