I’ve gathered up the Best Vegan Slow Cooker Recipes for you. A combination of easy recipes, including soups, stews, pasta, taco fillings and so much more. You’ll have to see them to believe just how much your crockpot can do.

28 Easy Vegan Slow Cooker Recipes

You can use your slow cooker in the summer to keep your house cool and it’s amazing in the winter for all the hearty recipes that you can prepare in it. 

I recommend that you prep the ingredients in the evening so all you have to do is grab them out of the fridge in the morning and put them in your crockpot before you leave for work. 

That way when you come home your vegan slow cooker dinner will be waiting for you!

Can I Use My Instant Pot to Make These Recipes?

Many of these recipes can be made on the slow cooker setting of your Instant Pot. You can read my article How To Slow Cook in Your Instant Pot for more details.

I Want All the Vegan Slow Cooker Recipes!

You can always pick up a copy of my latest book, The Revised Vegan Slow Cooker. It has your old favorite vegan slow cooker recipes plus new ones and all of them have updated instructions. I’ve learned tons in the past 10 years!

Slow Cooker Summer Pasta Sauce with Fresh Basil

It’s best to use fresh Italian tomatoes since they are meatier and not as juicy. If you use regular tomatoes seed them or be prepared to cook your sauce down longer than 8 hours. You can also seed the Italian ones to make a thicker sauce.

It's a great way to preserve the summer harvest.

Slow Cooker Vegan Tomato Cream Sauce

This recipe is an incredibly simple slow cooker tomato cream sauce which incorporates cashews for the creaminess, but doesn’t require you to make your cashew cream separately. Instead, you just throw the whole cashews in the slow cooker with the canned tomatoes and the tomato juices will soak and soften those cashews just right.
