9. Fooled Pork Sandwich With Fries [Vegan]

This barbecue Fooled Pork Sandwich with Fries is an experience that needs to be had. Young jackfruit is simmered until tender and then broiled in sticky barbecue sauce, allowing it to absorb the flavor. This sandwich is topped with a creamy, crunchy coleslaw that’s a nice contract to the tender barbecue sauce-covered jackfruit. It all comes with a side of crispy oven-baked fries — why not try piling those on the sandwich, too?

10. Chocolate Peanut Butter Brownies [Vegan, Gluten-Free]

Avocado works wonders in this recipe and helps keep the brownies as fudgy as possible while dates and maple syrup naturally sweeten.
