To Make These a Vegan Breakfast

If you are looking for only vegan options most of these can be replaced with a vegan substitute. For a vegan yogurt option, I recommend soy for the savory options and coconut for the sweet options. For the vegan cheese options, replace with your favorite vegan cheese. For a vegan milk option, I recommend going with plain soy milk. This gives you the creamiest consistency with your dishes.

⭐ My Favorites

There are so many delicious options on this list of vegetarian breakfast ideas. But if I had to pick, I love the Breakfast Potato Hash for a quick, savory option. It's easy to make, has the perfect amount of spice and a great option for when you want something brunch-like. Tofu Scramble is a good weekday/everyday breakfast option for me. I make this for the week and eat it for the next few days. You can vary up the vegetables with what's in season. For a sweet option, I also LOVE the Lemon Ricotta Pancakes. These are so delicious and taste like such a treat!

If I am making breakfast for guests, I love making the Hash Brown Casserole-it's always a hit! Even with the kids! You can prep most of it ahead of time and refrigerate until you're ready to bake the morning of.
