World Vegan Day 2024: Delicious Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner Ideas To Go All-In On Plant-Based

Every year, November 1 is celebrated as World Vegan Day. By now, the vegan lifestyle and diet have become quite popular around the world. Vegans avoid using leather, wool, and products tested on animals. They also avoid places that use animals for entertainment, such as circuses or zoos. The idea is to simply love and care for animals instead of using them for our benefit or, worse, being cruel to animals. A vegan diet is based on eating plants and foods made from plants including vegetables, grains, nuts and fruits. Vegans do not eat foods that come from animals, including dairy products and eggs. 

Why Do We Celebrate World Vegan Day?

World Vegan Day started in England in 1994, thanks to vegan activist Louise Wallis. As the President of the Vegan Society, she wanted to celebrate its 50th anniversary and bring attention to the term "vegan" entering the English language.

Wallis chose November 1 as the date, right between Halloween on October 31 and the 'Day of the Dead' on November 2. Since then, November 1 has been a special day for vegans worldwide to celebrate and spread awareness of veganism and its benefits.

In honour of World Vegan Day, here are some incredibly delicious vegan recipes you can cook and enjoy for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
