Recipe Description

This Classic Vegan Dirty Rice recipe delivers the heart and soul of traditional Louisiana cooking with a vegan twist. It fuses the aromatic presence of bell peppers, celery, and onions, known as the holy trinity of vegetables, with the deep, savory flavors of garlic, spices, and herbs. The key to this dish’s signature ‘dirty’ look is the inclusion of vegan ground meat, beautifully mimicking the texture and richness typically provided by animal products. Brown rice serves as the healthful base, absorbing the bold seasonings and vegetable broth, making this dish not only a comfort food but also a wholesome meal. This vegan rendition respects the heritage of Dirty Rice, while offering a plant-based option that is both nutritious and satisfying.
