The following dairy-free recipes would make an excellent option to bring to a picnic or potluck, and they are all vegan or can easily be made vegan by swapping honey for another sweetener. I hope you’ll enjoy them all summer long!

- Quinoa Pasta Salad
This “pasta” salad is my go-to recipe for entertaining a crowd. It can be made ahead of time and actually tastes better the next day! 2. Paleo Berry Crisp This recipe features low-sugar berries with just a touch of maple syrup added for a naturally-sweetened treat. I love it topped with scoop of dairy-free ice cream, but it’s also delicious on its own when served warm or cold. 3. Peachy Kale Salad
This recipe features a peachy vinaigrette that will have everyone eating their greens! 4. Creamy Vegan Potato Salad
This potato salad gets its creamy texture from heart-healthy avocado! 5. Peaches & Cream Ice Pops
These dairy-free popsicles require just 4 ingredients and are a refreshing way to enjoy a hot summer day. 6. Vegan Mac n’ Cheese
This dairy-free dish is always a good idea. Everyone loves it! 7. Creamy Coleslaw (Dairy-free)
This classic picnic dish tastes similar to my family’s favorite Southern-style coleslaw, without any mayonnaise or refined sugar. 8. Pineapple Whip
Calling for just 3 ingredients, this dairy-free pineapple sorbet is a healthy and refreshing alternative to the popular Dole Whip! 9. Chickpea & Avocado “Egg” Salad
This salad surprisingly tastes SO much like traditional egg salad, but it’s loaded with more fiber to leave you feeling satisfied the rest of the afternoon. Serve it on a sandwich, over a leafy green salad, or in lettuce cups! 10. Healthy Fudgsicles In lieu of dairy, these pudding pops get their creamy texture from heart-healthy avocados, but they still feature a rich chocolate flavor similar to that of a traditional Fudgsicle! — Wishing you all a very happy Fourth of July and summer ahead!
