Happy Friday my awesome plant-based enthusiasts! I’m super busy getting packed up and ready to go, so today’s post is going to be quick. But I just couldn’t deprive you all of another week of Healthy Vegan Fridays. Because what would we do without all this awesome vegan inspiration all compiled in one handy place?
For those of you who don’t know, Healthy Vegan Fridays is a new weekly blog hop hosted by myself, Shelby @ Everyday Vegan Girl and Carrie @ Carrie on Vegan. It is a place to share your healthy vegan recipes that make use of whole ingredients and minimize the use of processed and refined foods. The recipes shared on this link up are intended to emphasis the beauty, creativity and benefits of a healthy, plant-based diet!
Last week was another awesome party, thanks so much guys! Here’s the recap:
Most Popular Submissions
How I Lost 56 Pounds With the Green Smoothie Diet from Katherine @ Green Thickies
Read her amazing story if you haven’t already and witness the power of whole plant foods!
Creamy Avocado Chickpea Pasta from Sarina @ Earth Given
I loved this dish from the first moment I saw it. This looks filling and delicious!
Cherry Ripe Bites from NutriDude
Cherries and chocolate- do you even have to ask?
My Top Picks
Favourite Main Event: Enchiladas with Avocado Cream Sauce by Made to Create
I love Mexican flavours and this just looks perfect with that Avocado cream sauce!
Favourite Sensible Snack: Orange Coconut Larabars by Sarah @ This is What I Eat
Who doesn’t love recreating their favourite store-bought products. And this flavour sounds amazing! Great for a grab-and-go snack.
Favourite Indulgence: Low Fat Raw Vegan Chocolate Silk Pie by Tandi @ The Peaceful Kitchen
This raw pie uses irish moss as the main filling ingredient making it so much lighter than many raw desserts. So cool!
Now it’s time for Healthy Vegan Friday #6!
My submission for the week:
Avocado & Jalapeno Potato Salad
Continuing the salad theme from last week, I’m sharing another delicious salad recipe that would be an awesome addition to any long weekend barbeque! Getting it’s creaminess form avocado instead of mayonnaise, this is a recreation of one of my favourite salads from an Irish vegetarian restaurant.
So, if you have a healthy vegan recipe (or 2) to share, please add it to the list below! If not, feel free to browse the submissions and get inspired!

Totally on board for all things avocado! WoohoO!
Right? Hard to beat it!
Thank you Gabby – this is such a great idea :-)
What is it with me and Rafflecopter? I suck at it! Anyway, thanks so much for letting me know (again) I’ve fixed the entry thing now and I hope you’ll enter! Vegan pudding = yummy. Free vegan pudding = even better :)
Haha no worries! I went to a grocery store today and saw 4 flavours of the pudding! I didn’t buy any this time since I need to stock my new places with essentials first, but I’m happy to know they’re there!
This website was… how do I say it? Relevant!! Finally I’ve found something that helped me. Thanks a lot!
Wow this looks fantastic! My kids love potato salad. Great idea
Thank you! It’s funny, as a kid I hated potato salad, but turned out what I really hated was mayo-heavy potato salad from fast food restaurants and grocery stores. This is so much better!
anything drenched in avocado like those enchiladas and your potato salad has to be delicious!
Right? Avocado can only make a dish that much more awesome!
Just linked up :) Best of luck with the move this weekend and great to see the HVF rolling along so expertly! Love it! xx
Awesome Shira, so nice to see you back :) Have a lovely weekend!
Thanks again for hosting Gabby and thank you so much for featuring my recipe! That is awesome! The enchiladas look amazing too :) Your potato salad looks and sounds so delicious and I bet that jalapeno adds such a nice pop! I haven't figured out what I'm sbmitting yet this week. It's been so crazy with work and now I'm going away for my friend's wedding so hopefully I'll have time to figure out a new fun recipe :)
Best of luck with the move! Can't wait to see what you come up with in your new home :)
