Fall
My cozy vegetarian fall recipes are built around what’s at the market right now: squash, apples, Brussels sprouts, sweet potatoes and corn. But also, every recipe here is vegetarian, and most are fully vegan.
For an easy weeknight bowl, my black bean and corn soup comes together in one pot in 45 minutes, and my roasted pumpkin and apple soup is the one to make when the weather first starts to turn.
It’s roasted vegetables time to shine at this part of the year too, so try out my oven-roasted Brussels sprouts and roasted sweet potato and kale fall salad.
For dessert, impress the family by baking an acorn squash pie or my chai masala pumpkin pie, a vegan pumpkin pie spiced with Indian chai masala. If you want more inspiration, browse all of my fall recipes below.

Frequently Asked Questions
Fall is the season for hearty soups, roasted vegetables, grain salads and baked fruit desserts. Some of our favorites are the Hearty Vegetarian Chili & Rice, the Roasted Root Vegetables, the Vegan Brussels Sprout Salad with Roasted Squash and a warm Apple Crisp for dessert.
Our most popular fall soups are the Black Bean and Corn Soup, the Roasted Corn & Cauliflower Soup, the Acorn Squash & Quinoa Soup and the Jerusalem Artichoke (Sunchoke) Soup. All of them are vegetarian and freeze well for busy weeks.
Start by sautéing onion, celery, carrots and garlic, then add chili powder and cumin. Stir in vegetable broth, canned black beans, crushed tomatoes and corn, and simmer until thick. Our Black Bean and Corn Soup is made in one pot in about 45 minutes and is naturally vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free.
Acorn squash pie is a lot like pumpkin pie, but made with roasted acorn squash, which gives it a slightly nuttier, sweeter flavor. Our Acorn Squash Pie is spiced with cinnamon, ginger, cloves and nutmeg, sweetened with maple syrup, uses silken tofu instead of eggs and is topped with whipped coconut cream.
Apples, pears and nuts are the stars of fall baking. Try the Classic Apple Pie, the Spiced Pear Cake, the Healthy Baked Pecan-Stuffed Apples or a batch of Vegan Candied Pecans for snacking and gifting.
