No matter what sort of Easter lunch you had in mind, we’ve got plenty of recipes to suit every occasion. From a traditional Sunday roast to the perfect spring menu, these plant-based recipes will be sure to impress vegans and meat-eaters alike.

Plant-based roast recipes
If you’re opting for a vegan take on the classic Sunday roast, then here’s what we’ve got for you.
Vegan mushroom Wellingtons
This hearty favourite is the perfect main event at any plant-based roast!
Mushroom walnut and leek stuffing
We love this crunchy, soft, savoury and sweet stuffing so much that we’d be happy for it to be the entire meal, but of course, it is an excellent side dish for a roast too.
Yorkshire puddings
Crispy vegan Yorkshire puddings – what’s better than that?
Roast potatoes
These fluffy and crispy roast potatoes are brought to life with fresh rosemary.
Vegan gravy
This rich red onion gravy will perfectly tie together all of the above dishes and envelop your Easter roast in a thick and glossy blanket.
Maple and ginger roast carrots
To add some sweetness and tang to the meal, these maple and ginger roast carrots are just the ticket.
Recipes for a fresh spring vegan Easter meal
For something a little lighter that champions the best local produce that spring has to offer.
Spring greens tart
This tart recipe is easily customisable depending on the fresh produce you have access to, but the result is always a crisp tart topped with vibrant green vegetables pulled together with a zesty and minty cashew-cream.
Asparagus grain salad
If you’re after a variety of texture, then this herby asparagus salad with roasted almond flakes and giant couscous has it in spades.
Magiritsa – Vegan Easter soup
For a delicious plant-based magiritsa soup, a traditional Greek Easter dish, this recipe from Akis Petretzikis is the one for you. It’s packed full of wild mushrooms, rice, fresh lettuce and plenty more.
Vegan-friendly Easter baking recipes
What would the bank holiday weekend be without a little Easter baking?
Vegan hot cross buns
And what would a long Easter walk be without the prospect of returning to a large cup of tea and fresh hot cross buns?
No-bake chocolate tiffin
If you’re not already chocolate-d out by now, then you must try this recipe for rich and fudgy vegan tiffin to up your cocoa-content!
