15 Plant-Based Food and Cooking Gifts For Your Vegan Loved Ones

Every editorial product is independently selected by our editors. If you buy something through our links, we may earn commission.

Every year around the holidays, there is no shortage of cooking gift guides full of fancy olive oil and beautiful candy-colored cookware. While these kinds of guides are great, they may fall short if you are shopping for a personalized present for a loved one with specific dietary needs or preferences.

That's why we rounded up our favorite selections of food and cooking gifts for the plant-based foodie in your life.

There are the culinary gift guide classics — like an oven mitt and a saute pan — plus, plenty of vegetarian-specific choices, like reusable produce bags and an apron with a cheeky plant pun.
