Vegan Recipes Gone Viral! PETA’s Fave TikTok Trends

If you have a smartphone, you probably spend a large portion of your screen time marveling at recipe hacks on Gen Z’s favorite app: TikTok. And the best part is that many of the recipe videos that have gone viral are vegan! If the recipe that has you drooling on your device contains animal-derived products, fear not, my friend, ’cause we’ve got some hacks that’ll make it possible to partake in those trends, too, without hurting animals. Here are some great ones that are already vegan, followed by some hacks from us:

Dalgona (Whipped) Coffee

What better way is there to start the day than with a cup o’ joe? How about with a cup of whipped joe?! See how easy it is to make delicious, velvety coffee in just a few minutes.

Vegan Mini Pancake Cereal

The mini pancake trend was too cute not to make vegan. PETA shows you how to start your morning off right with “accidentally vegan” pancake mix, egg replacer, and everyone’s favorite: oat milk.

Tabitha Brown’s Vegan Mac and Cheese

This recipe has our two favorite things: vegan cheese and Tabitha Brown. The “cheese” sauce looks almost too good.

Tabitha Brown’s Carrot Bacon

There’s a reason this video has 3.5 million views—and that iconic crunch has got to be it. Use an oven or an air fryer to get great results.

Vegan Alfredo Pasta

Who knew that you could make a delicious, creamy sauce out of garlic? Well, this lady did, and that’s why her video tutorial is so popular. Excuse us while we go peel some garlic bulbs.

Vegan Fried Egg Sandwich Hack

You may have seen those fried sandwiches with egg on the outside of the bread and meat and cheese in the middle. It seems like a fun idea—if it didn’t come with all that animal suffering. So we’ve created a vegan hack to make your fried sandwich dreams come true. This recipe is proof that you can veganize any TikTok recipe you see if the creator forgot that animals are sentient beings who deserve our consideration.

Egg replacer (such as Follow Your Heart’s VeganEgg or Orgran’s Vegan Easy Egg) equivalent of 3 eggs

Salt and pepper, to taste

2 slices vegan bread

Shredded vegan cheese

Optional fillings: cooked vegan ham, vegan sausage, and vegan bacon

• Pour the egg substitute into a heated, well-greased pan. Sprinkle with the salt and pepper.
• Quickly and carefully dip each slice of bread into the mixture so that both sides are coated then place in the pan with the bottom edges facing each other.
• Once the bottom side has cooked, flip the bread and “egg” as one.
• Place the vegan cheese and desired fillings on top of the “egg.”
• Once the “cheese” has melted, fold in the edges of the “egg” then fold one slice of bread over the other to make a sandwich.

Vegan living went mainstream a long time ago, and that means it’s now easy to find all kinds of animal-free recipes and foods on popular apps, on cooking websites, and in restaurants. Remember: It’s not OK to confine and artificially inseminate animals, kidnap their babies, exploit their reproductive systems until their bodies are worn out, slaughter them, and eat their flesh. Any recipe can easily be made vegan just by swapping a few nasty ingredients for their vegan counterparts.
