24 Vegan Copycat Recipes

Missing your favorites from fast food places and restaurants, like Taco Bell, In-N-Out, and Olive Garden? Check out these awesome healthy vegan copycat recipes!

If you've been vegan for any amount of time, you'll know how tough it can be to eat out. It seems like all the food out there contains animal products - seriously. Hidden beef in french fries. Lard in refried beans. Cheese in...EVERYTHING.

Navigating a menu can be such a headache. That's not to say it's impossible, though! More and more options for vegans are becoming available (check out this list.)

But when you don't want to dissect a menu or worry about the chef or fast food employee accidentally adding cheese or meat into your dish, you can still make really tasty vegan food at home that is JUST as good - if not better than - the restaurant or fast food versions.

Some of my favorite food blogger friends & I have created really amazing vegan copycat recipes from places like Taco Bell, Panera Bread, In-N-Out, Starbucks, Pizza Hut, and more! Cravings, begone.
