Hosting a 4th of July BBQ? Here’s your ultimate vegan menu.

The 4th of July is almost here, and your ultimate vegan BBQ lineup has landed!

Whether you’re planning the party or just bringing a dish, these recipes have your back. 

We’re talking saucy jackfruit sandwiches, a crisp and colorful salad, and mac so creamy, even the skeptics won’t believe it’s dairy-free. Plus, we’ve featured a chilled dessert to end on a sweet note.

All fresh, nourishing, and better for animals. Because when food has purpose, it leaves a lasting impression.

BBQ pulled pork sandwiches

This jackfruit sandwich delivers everything you crave in BBQ: deep flavor, smoky heat, and plenty of saucy, delicious mess.

Simmered in spices and stacked with crisp slaw, it’s a two-handed, no-napkin-left kind of meal.

Zesty sweet potato power salad

Ready to add some color to your cookout?

This vibrant side brings together roasted sweet potatoes, Brussels sprouts, toasted walnuts, and cranberries, all tossed in a zesty balsamic vinaigrette. It’s lightly sweet, just the right amount of tangy, and packed with feel-good ingredients.

Easy vegan mac and cheezy

It’s creamy, golden, and rich enough to make you forget the boxed stuff existed.

This mac gets its richness from blended cashews, its depth from nutritional yeast, and that classic melty pull from vegan cheddar.

It’s gooey, it’s comforting, and yes, people will ask for the recipe.

Avocado and banana cream

Cool down with the easiest dessert of the summer. Ripe bananas, creamy avocado, and rich cocoa blend into a smooth, chocolatey base. Scoop into glasses, chill, and top with fresh berries and nuts for a festive 4th of July finish. 

The secret behind the cheeze? It’s nooch.

Nooch—or nutritional yeast—is the reason your mac tastes so cheesy without the dairy.

It’s savory, nutty, and surprisingly versatile.
