1. Naturally Ella
Naturally Ella is a seasonal, pantry-inspired vegetarian recipe blog.
We love the way she’s organized her site around ingredients.
This both lets you find something to make using what you have on hand (as opposed to falling back on takeout) and helps you see the many possibilities that one ingredient can have.
The focus on stocking your pantry is also refreshing, as many food blogs assume you already have a full pantry of exotic ingredients and never bother to explain how to put one together.

2. The Lean Green Bean
Lindsay is a registered dietitian and healthy living enthusiast.
While her blog includes a fair share of healthy recipes and food information, it also has advice on fitness and how to become a registered dietitian.
Oh, and there are some great tips for parents who are interested in getting their kids to eat healthy from an early age.

3. Oh She Glows
Angela Liddon has a vegan recipe blog that aims to appeal to both vegans and omnivores alike.
Plus, most of her recipes are free of gluten, soy, and processed foods.
She credits her dietary changes with immense improvements in her health, and she wants to help her readers achieve similar results.

4. Jessica in the Kitchen
Focusing on whole food vegan and vegetarian recipes, Jessica in the Kitchen is a blog that shows just how tasty it can be to go without meat.
In addition to recipes, Jessica also writes posts on food travel (a topic that can be tricky for those who don’t eat animals or animal products).
Recipe to try: King’s Shepherd’s Pie
5. Green Kitchen Stories
Green Kitchen Stories is a reminder that not eating meat doesn’t automatically result in a healthy diet.
Vegetarianism can be healthy, but you have to make sure you’re using the right recipes and getting all the required nutrients.
That’s what Green Kitchen Stories helps you do, focusing on recipes that are both vegetarian and healthy.
We also love the closeups of all the food (be sure to zoom in when you take pictures of your recipes).

6. My New Roots
My New Roots is a vegetarian, vegan, and raw vegan recipe blog.
But it’s a lot more than that. It focuses just as much on how to make healthy choices as how to prepare healthy food.
After all, it doesn’t matter how healthy you eat if you’re not getting enough sleep, exercising regularly, and working to reduce unhealthy stress.
This holistic approach is a way for this blog to differentiate itself, and it’s something worth considering when you create your own healthy food blog.

7. A Couple Cooks
Sonja & Alex Overhiser are the pair behind A Couple Cooks, a blog that shows how cooking healthy vegetarian and vegan food can bring you closer to your partner.
In addition to blogging about food, they also write about relationships, family, and travel.
Many of their recipes focus on how to make basic staples that are healthier or tastier than store bought versions.

8. Sprouted Kitchen
Sprouted Kitchen is the blog project of Sara Forte.
It focuses on vegan and vegetarian food, but it also has some unique features.
For one, Sara runs a virtual “cooking club” that helps you connect with other home cooks and get access to exclusive recipe training.
It’s like a social version of meal planning.
In addition to this, Sara weaves extensive personal stories into her recipes.
You get to hear about what it’s like to be a parent of young children, making Sprouted Kitchen as much of a personal blog or parenting blog as a healthy food blog.
It’s an interesting example of how to merge your interests into one blog project.

9. The Healthy Apple
Amie Valpone runs The Healthy Apple, a blog focused on helping you eat in a way that will fight inflammation and detoxify your body.
It’s not just about your food choices, however.
The blog also has advice on how to get better sleep, clean your house with natural products, and live a more spontaneous, joyous life.

10. Sunday Morning Banana Pancakes
Heather Poire created Sunday Morning Banana Pancakes to share her seasonal, local, plant-based recipes.
In addition to recipes, the blog also features tips on backyard gardening (to keep your food as local and seasonal as possible).
Not to mention, the photos of her real food recipes are gorgeous and dreamy (natural light is key).
