Top 7 Gift Ideas for New Vegans

1. Vegan for Life (Book)

The 'vegan for life' book on a hardwood floor.

This book, written by two dietitians who are vegan is an excellent read.

If I had to pick some ‘required reading’ about vegan nutrition for every new vegan, this might be it!

2. Going Vegan (A Vegan Lifestyle Journal)

The 'Going Vegan: A Vegan Lifestyle Journal' cover is displayed at the top with examples of pages inside at the bottom.

Sometimes the hardest thing about going vegan is forgetting why you are doing this.

This journal is designed to help you track your thoughts and meals one day at a time as you slowly transition to the vegan lifestyle over 4 weeks!

3. Their Favorite Treat – Veganized!

Let’s be honest- another tough part about going vegan is missing the treats you love.

Not all vegan ‘cheese’ tastes like dairy cheese, am I right?

That’s one reason why their favorite treat – veganized, makes an amazing gift!

You can grab a store-bought version in a pinch, but there’s just something about DIY that feels super special.

Here’s some examples of classic treats -veganized!

4. A Cute Vegan Food Pun Shirt

Want to announce your new lifestyle with a cute shirt?

With a huge variety from humorous to straight to the point, you are likely to find something that your new vegan friend will love.

5. A Vegan Nutrition Course or Consult from a Dietitian

Get some help from the experts!

There are several vegan dietitians who are passionate about helping folks who are confused about being a nutritionally sound vegan.

Some offer courses, consulting, and even a combination of both!

Check out this article about vegan Registered Dietitian Nutritionists to learn about some of them!

6. A Vegan Cookbook

Two vegan cookbooks: the How Not to Die Cookbook by Michael Greger, and 'Vegan Richa's Indian Kitchen' by Richa Hingle.

This list of gift ideas for new vegans centers around food for a good reason: vegan cooking is a learning curve (just like nutrition can be!)

So why not give the gift of vegan recipes with stunning photos?

I shared a couple of cookbooks I have above, but there are so many options and cuisines out there.

7. A Vegan Notebook to Jot Down Recipes

My Favorite Vegan Recipes Book cover with examples of pages inside

Do you have a few tried and true vegan recipes that you always bring to potluck?

Or a family favorite that everyone in the family actually loves?

A blank recipe cookbook is a great place to keep all of these tasty recipes organized.

Consider helping your new vegan friend out by giving them this gift with a few of your favorite vegan recipes inside!
