27 Vegan Pasta Recipes You Will Love

If you are a pasta lover, you will probably fall in love with these delicious vegan pasta recipes! And it doesn’t matter if you are a meat-eater, vegetarian, or pescetarian. In fact, these vegan pasta dishes are suitable for everyone, as the pasta sauces do not lack flavor! In my opinion, vegan pasta can be enjoyed throughout the week or on weekends (or both).

My Best Tips for all Vegan Pasta Recipes

Choose your favorite type of pasta: All of these vegan pasta recipes can be made gluten-free by using gluten-free pasta. Nowadays, you can buy quinoa pasta, rice pasta, corn pasta, etc. There is even pasta made from legumes (e.g. chickpea pasta, lentil pasta, etc.) which is also grain-free. It’s also higher in protein and the healthiest option, in my opinion. However, any pasta type is fine. If you are not a celiac and prefer a budget-friendly option, feel free to use regular wheat-based pasta. Make the pasta recipe kid-friendly: If a pasta recipe calls for red pepper flakes or chili/cayenne pepper, simply leave it out and add a pinch later over your own pasta bowl (if you love spicy food). Salt your pasta water: Make sure to add enough salt to the pasta cooking water, otherwise, the pasta will taste bland. One pinch is not enough, the water should taste salty. Do not overcook the pasta: I follow the pasta package directions but often reduce the cooking time by one minute, to ensure that the pasta is al dente.
