Vegan breakfast might sound boring, but its the most nutritious type of breakfast one can have which is filled with goodness. A vegan diet is a plant-based food which includes some specific food items like leafy vegetables, millets, nuts, and fruits. Veganism denounces the consumption of animal-based food items like meat, eggs, fish, milk and dairy products. In fact, there is a long history attached to the vegan diet which takes you back in time to 1944, wherein the concept was limited to only a limited section of the Indian society. With popular names adapting to this diet like Jay Z and Beyonce, the vegan diet started garnering more attention and is considered as a mainstream diet now. Since breakfast is the most important meal of the day, take a look at some vegan breakfast recipes you can easily make at home.
