The ultimate collection of non-dairy versions of traditionally dairy-filled dishes! Healthy, lower-fat alternatives to lactose-laden comfort foods and classic recipes that rely on dairy for their taste. You’ll never know the difference between these delicious, (mostly) vegan recipes and the originals!
More and more people are giving up dairy these days. Whether they have an allergy to lactose or they just feel that dairy causes gastrointestinal discomfort (think bloating, gas, indigestion, etc.), dairy-free living seems to be catching on just as fast as the gluten-free fad.
I, for one, love dairy and eat it in multiple forms everyday, but I don’t judge others for their dietary or lifestyle choices. With that in mind, I decided it was time to do a recipe roundup specifically for those who follow a non-dairy diet.
It can be hard to have your favorite foods that usually have dairy in them when you’ve decided to go dairy-free. Luckily, a lot of talented chefs and bloggers out there have gone to work recreating classic dairy-filled dishes so that they are completely without their staple ingredient. Think sauces, soups, baked goods, dips, and more!
Alternatively I thought about titling this recipe roundup The ‘I Can’t Believe It’s Non-Dairy‘ Recipe Roundup. 😉 Honestly, once you see these recipes, you’ll be thinking the same thing!
Now, think of your favorite, classic, dairy-laden recipe. Now can you imagine it dairy-free? Probably wouldn’t be quite as good right. Well this collection of recipes proves otherwise. All of these delicious recipes are healthy, non-dairy takes on traditional dairy-filled dishes. Most are vegan, all taste incredible, and once you try them for yourself you’ll be saying this out loud: “I can’t believe it’s non-dairy!”

Thank you!! So many options… I think I need to eat 6 meals per day from now on. 😉
I ALWAYS eat 6 times a day! 😀
Mmm loving this dairy free round up! So many delicious recipes that are perfect for cooler weather 🙂
Thanks Kerri!!
You totally had me saying “i can’t believe it’s not dairy” after looking at all of these recipes! Seriously, if I didn’t know that the cheddar broccoli soup was made with sweet potatoes I wouldn’t believe that its vegan!
Hehe I am quite tricky with my ingredient swaps! 😉
I have to try that mozzarella, it looks so easy and so melty? There are so many swaps for dairy these days, its amazing!
RIGHT?! It looks so freaking delicious! AND MELTY!!
These all look so good! I need to try those potatoes soon! Thanks for including my mozzarella & pesto!
SO WELCOME!! They look amazing.
I love that you always have options for everybody. If you choose to have dairy, have it. You can always add it to the recipe. I myself am a cheese lover. But I don’t have to have it in every meal. There are several recipes on this list I want to try. Your broccoli cheddar soup is on the top of my list. And that pistachio pesto pasta looks delish! Going to check out all these recipes, thanks for sharing them. Definitely looking to boost my fall menu rotation, these will help.
Let me know how you like the soup!! It’s totally one of my faves this time of year!!
I think it would be fun to make that vegan mozzarella for my friends who are dairy free; I really am so thankful for you and the way that you want to make recipes and round up recipes for others even though they aren’t your particular dietary restrictions. <3
I really want to make that cheese too! It looks so amazing!

HI Kaila,

Great collection of dishes! When my daughter was diagnosed with a milk protein allergy, I found dairy the most expensive to substitute, and also we had to compromise on taste a bit. Thanks for sharing with #FreeFromFridays
So welcome!
These recipes look DELICIOUS!!! My son and I both have a dairy allergy and I am super eager to try the cheddar broccoli soup, especially now that the weather is getting cooler!
Yes it’s one of my all time favorite soups! Definitely try it out!!
Thank you for sharing your delicious recipe at the #RecipeSharingParty. I look forward to what you will share next week! We hope you’ll come back again next Thursday when we open our doors at 9:00 AM EST.

I want to try the pistachio pesto and a few more. Thanks for sharing at Funtastic Friday.
That pesto is AMAZING!
[…] I eat MULTIPLE servings of greek yogurt a day, and cottage cheese is a staple too. Sure I use non-dairy milks because I prefer their taste and like dabbling with vegan cheeses every now and then, but […]
