While Black Lives Matter may not be inundating your news feed any longer, Black lives still matter. Today is Blackout Day, a call to action day designed to show solidarity in America where not one Black person in the country spends a dollar outside of businesses owned by Black people. This is an economic protest to highlight the important of Black lives and a call-to-action to politicians to end institutionally racist policies in our society.
We’ve rounded up eight Black-owned vegan businesses in Las Vegas you can support for Blackout Day (and any day).

Peterson’s Pantry
A meal delivery service, Peterson’s Pantry focuses largely on comfort food like savory chicken pot pie and calzones. But, they’ve also got healthy bowls and more. The best part? If you’re craving something, they can make it for you! Peterson’s Pantry also makes sweets like cakes. Order here.
POTs
The all-vegan Egyptian fast-casual restaurant is the city’s only Egyptian restaurant. With a menu of Egyptian street food, there’s so much goodness to choose from like our personal favorite, the carb-heavy koshari. POTs also features desserts like konafa cups, a coconut custard with filo dough and topped with dried fruit.
Vintage Vegan Diner
Delivering every weekend, Vintage Vegan Diner creates comfort food like tofu tots, garlic-smothered sliders and chicken fingers, plus soft chocolate chip cookies. Order here.
Simply Pure
Located in The Container Park, Simply Pure by Chef Stacey Dougan’s menu is a split between raw dishes (hello, raw tacos!) and comfort food like the best lasagna we’ve ever had, pesto grilled cheese and nachos. Grab your food and then enjoy the outdoor seating at Container Park. They also offer meal prep if you don’t feel like cooking. Right now, when you purchase a meal pack, Simply Pure donates a meal pack to families in need.
