Hot cereal, cold cereal, smoothie bowls, and lots more, this scrumptious collection includes no less than 50 vegan breakfast bowls!
After seeing the great response my 50 Irresistible Vegan Sandwiches post got last month, I decided more roundups were in order. Not just for you guys, I mean, I’m happy to share and all, but also for me. Spending a few weeks surfing the net with a focus and pinning like crazy in one category is a great way to work my inspiration juices.
So, I asked what you might be interested in seeing as the focus of another roundup, and the first respond I got was “vegan breakfast bowls.” This was actually a perfect idea, because as I’d sort of failed in making my sandwich post helpful in the back-to-school department, this was an area that would most certainly be suitable for that topic. What’s better on a hectic weekday morning than a quick and hearty breakfast? And what’s generally the best type of breakfast for being quick and hearty? You got it. Breakfast in a bowl!
Now, a word about the concept of a breakfast bowl is in order. See, when I first heard the mention of a “vegan breakfast bowl,” something came right to mind. Breakfasts you eat in a bowl. Duh. I’ve got lots of those! Granolas, smoothie bowls, oatmeals, other cerealy stuff. If you google the term “breakfast bowl” without the “vegan” part, you’ll get something completely different, most of your search results involving copious amounts of eggs and sausage. Not what I had in mind. The vegan breakfast bowl is a completely different animal (pun intended). So don’t expect to find 50 vegan sausage and egg recipes, which, honestly would get a bit boring if you ask me. Fruits, grains, dairy-free milks, and okay, maybe I took a little liberty in including a baked breakfast bowl section, but you can eat that stuff in a bowl and Autumn is one week away! So I stand by that decision.
Having said all that, here’s 50 mouthwatering examples of delicious vegan breakfast bowls!

Thank you so much for referring your readers to my Sprouted Buckwheat Breakfast Cereal Recipe on Chez Bettay, the Vegan Gourmet. Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day and it’s always a challenge to create simple but nourishing breakfast menus. Sprouting buckwheat is so simple and the dehydrated cereal is excellent with almond milk and any fruit.
You’re so welcome! I love the idea of sprouted grain cereal – thank you so much for an awesome recipe! :)
Amazing list!… thanks for putting it together. I just “discover” your blog and I’m loving it.
So glad you’re enjoying the blog! Thanks Laura!
I love your selection. I am gonna try it for my family this weekend.
I hope you and your family enjoy the recipes!
My most loved one is the chicken with seeds out of the jack natural product in (yummy) The more seasoned age like curries produced using dried fish which is very solid and rancid, and individuals appear to like acrid and unpleasant tastes instead of sweet stuff.
Among the Savory Breakfast Bowls I’d like to add something with rice and beans. It’s common to have this for breakfast for quite a few people all over the World. As I’ll most probably will never have a food blog of my own, I post it here…
Rice with Kidney beans, dried dates and apricots: Saute a sliced onion, two or three minced cloves of garlic and a piece of fresh cut ginger. Slice about 100g (one cup, most probably) dried dates in thirds and dried apricots in fourths, add them to to the onion etc. and one can of drained and rinsed Kidney beans (over here in Germany my bean can says that it contains a net weight of 410g, drained 255g, should be two cups – ?). Spice it with paprika powder, a bit of chili, curry and cilantro powder. Add long grain or Basmati rice (about 200g/two cups – ?) and 400ml of vegetable broth. Let it simmer for about 20 min until the broth is soaked up by the rice. So, this is a savory dish with sweet elements (dates, apricots), no “sweet dish”. It works well not only for breakfast… you can have it as a warm meal, but also cold (to eat spicey cold rice for breakfast is common in quite a few countries). Just an idea for you, Alissa, that you might like (or not ;-)). Optionally you can add one or two middle sized sliced carrots and two or three sliced scallions and spice it up with Tabasco sauce.
