Enjoy a meal with your dad, or most of these recipes freeze very well, so they are perfect for making ahead of time or for stocking the freezer so dad can enjoy them for weeks to come! Whether you are cooking this up for your dad or yourself, these 10 meaty vegan Father’s Day recipes will “hit the spot” as my dad would say 🙂

In my opinion, a good veggie burger has certain requirements. It needs to have a nice bite and chew (no mushiness!), it needs to be juicy and packed full of flavour, and it has to be strong enough to hold up on the grill. These Vegan Seitan Burgers are all that and more! Happy Vegan Father’s Day? Sure, but more like “Happy Best Vegan Burger Dad Has Ever Had Day”!!

These Vegan Seitan Tenders are, you guessed it, tender. They are juicy and succulent. The tenders are easy to make and can be prepared ahead of time and stored in the fridge for several days, or in the freezer so you can have them on hand whenever you like. Then, the best part is that when you are ready to serve, you can fry them, grill them, marinate them, bake them, or treat them any way you would have treated a chicken dish. These vegan seitan tenders are so delicious and what better way to impress Dad than with a Vegan Father’s Day meal to remember?
These Vegan Italian Seitan Sausages have that perfect meaty texture, that classic sausage shape, that flavourful burst of Italian seasoning, and they’re just really damn good! Why not fire up the grill and treat Dad to some Father’s Day-worthy vegan sausages – you will not regret this!!
Just a reminder that all of my recipes are always 100% vegan, just in case I scared you a little with that picture. Because hot dang those Vegan Seitan Bites are looking a whole lot like chicken wings. Fear not, no chickens were harmed in the making of these vegan chicken wings. But they sure are sauce drippingly, sticky finger, scrumptious nibbles with Vegan Blue Cheese Dip for dunking those seitan bites in. Ooooh yeah, this is some quality Vegan Father’s Day bar food right here.

Food on a stick! Need I say more? Why is it that food on a stick is extra scrumptious? And grill marks too. Grill marks make everything look more scrumptious. And then peanut butter sauce!!
