When I went to Australia earlier this year, I overdosed on egg and bacon rolls.? I sent an enthusiastic email to Grace about how I was enjoying recreating my own here at home, and she wrote me back that she is pretty much vegan these days.? I was a bit crestafallen that my enthusiasm for bacon had fallen on deaf ears, but it got me to thinking if I could ever make that transition.? I took a stroll through our archives to see what dishes we had here for vegans and I decided to just do a Best of.? We have quite a few recipes in the archives which are made with the addition of a sprinkle of cheese which would be an easily skipped ingredient but I have not included those here.? I have however tried to include quite a few recipes that can be easily personalized with your favorite ingredients.? Hope you enjoy our collection!? -Kristina
Above, Green Kitchen Stories? Portobello Mushroom Burger.? I could say so much about this burger but the photo speaks for itself.? This would definitely make my list of best burgers!? Tuck your napkin into your shirt, roll up your sleeves and have a bite!
Sharon Spain shared her recipe for homemade pickles with us a few years ago.? I sat for a while trying to conceive of how I could make a mouth-watering picture of a pickle, but took my problem to Matt Armendariz (who shot the image above) and he helped me right away with the idea of a pickle sandwich.? Don?t worry, cheese is not part of the recipe, just part of the presentation.
More fantastic vegan recipes after the jump?

?Sushi? is another food that is perfect entertaining food.? It can be made to fit the palate of anyone who is eating it.? Many readers shared their own favorite combinations that they prepare at home.? I am lucky because my husband doesn?t like ?sushi? with fish or without, so whenever I make it it?s all mine.? Jill Bliss? sushi recipe just using carrots, cucumber and avocado is a classic and addictive roll!

Heidi Swanson, author of the beautifully written and photographed blog 101 Cookbooks, wrote one of the most beautiful books to pass through my hands in so very long.?

This recipe for roasted strawberries is from the book.? Perfect for any time of the day.

Though I intended for this Best Of to be exclusively savory, there were some flavors that I just could not leave out as we head into summer.? A beautiful fruit sorbet was a definite priority.? This recipe for plum marsala sorbet is from Kristin Silverman, the lawyer behind The Kitchen Sink blog.? It?s a perfect refreshing dessert for summer that won?t weigh you down.? An ice cream machine is worth it, just so you can make this!? But don?t worry.? Kristin has provided instructions on how to enjoy the sorbet as a granita if you don?t have a machine.
