Celebrating the small things in life can make the big things feel less overwhelming. Maybe it’s performing that extra push-up, or writing that extra paragraph in an article or a story. Think of it like gravity. It takes a little push, and you can get the ball rolling on all your goals. Welcome to this week’s Food Friday blog.

This week, we’ve got great photos of vegan dishes in store for you, images of delectable meals and inspiring portions. We’ve compiled tasty cakes, mouth-watering tofu, and so much more, made by the dedicated foodies of Instagram.

Ready? Let’s dig right in!

 

 

Let’s start with dessert! @amai_by_surbhi presents this delicious pair of banana breads. Just look at the lighting and texture of this delicious dish! The blackberries and strawberries provide a nice contrast to each other, while the banana just adds the overall aesthetic of the photo. Quite wonderful.

 

 

Ah, congee. Have you ever tried it? It’s delicious! We hope that @cyberalice’s rendition of the dish makes you consider trying it out. With some kimchi (another great plant-based dish that you should totally try out) and peanut paste, this congee must be an experience for the tongue.

 

 

@tajanoidea presents these delicious vegan Buchteln, an Austrian yeast bun that looks so sweet and fluffy, it’s as if you’re biting into the stuff of clouds. There’s many types of bread, such as pan de sal and sweet buns. Trying out the bread-based delicacies of different countries can be one way for you to explore them.

 

 

Ah, quite the combination. @maaritin presents this lovely plate of plant-based delights, such as tomato and chilli balls, salad and couscous. Good food combinations can really make or break a dish. It’s like painting, in how you have to consider the way certain food complements and enhances the flavors of its kind. The three main parts of this dish look like they work quite well together.

 

 

Our final pick of the week belongs to @nourished_and_vibrant, with a tofu noodle miso bowl that lives up to their IG name. There’s something so fresh and vibrant about this particular food pic. Maybe it’s the way the white, brown and green and red colors contribute to the mouth-watering image of this bowl. We like to mention colors and textures a lot, but they can really give you an idea of how tasty a food photo is.

That’s it for this week. Be sure to visit us next week for a fresh batch of great vegan food photos to admire and be inspired by. Want to showcase your vegan cuisine photos?
