Vegan Cooking can be colourful, satisfying and varied, and this course provides a practical introduction to preparing plant-based food for every part of the day. From energising breakfasts and wholesome lunches to comforting evening meals, learners will explore a diverse collection of recipes designed to build confidence in the kitchen and expand their everyday cooking options.

The course begins with breakfast recipes that demonstrate how familiar favourites can be prepared using plant-based ingredients. You will explore pancakes, homemade English muffins, strawberry scones, granola, smoothies and overnight oats, alongside versatile accompaniments such as hummus and fruit compote.

You will also explore complementary dishes such as garlic rice and roasted vegetables with chickpeas and tahini dressing, helping you develop a more varied approach to meal preparation.

For dinner, the course introduces filling recipes inspired by different flavours and cooking styles. You will learn to prepare dishes such as a vegan burrito bowl, plant-based mac and cheese, bean curry, dal makhani, homemade rotis and a mushroom-based meal served with complementary sides. These recipes demonstrate how vegetables, grains, legumes, tofu and other plant-based ingredients can be combined to create enjoyable and satisfying meals.
