Are you ready to try 21 (we had to add and extra) of the best vegan potato recipes? Youβll find everything from potato wedges, fries, salads, soups, and appetizers. Many of the recipes are great for a simple meal or the holidays.
Are Potatoes Good for You?
Potatoes get such a bad rap.
The reason is because theyβre deep fried or filled with dairy butter and cheese, and other high calorie and saturated fat ingredients.
Our potato recipes are dairy-free and many are oil-free, so you can feel good about eating them.

What are the Best Potatoes for Cooking?
That all depends on what youβre making.
For hearty soups, you can use pretty much any potato.
If you're making fries or stuffed potatoes, we like russet/Idaho potatoes, because they have a high starch content and are firmer.
For mashed potatoes, Yukon gold is king. Theyβre creamy and have a buttery flavor.
Finally, if youβre making a sweet potato recipe, then of course, choose a sweet potato.

If youβre not into cooking with oil, these simple fries are going to become your favorite recipe.
The secret to getting these oil-free fries crispy is lemon juice.
