Can't imagine living without cheese? Convinced that dairy-free baked goods just don't cut it? Hate the taste of tofu and not a fan of boring salads? EXCUSES, BE GONE! Blogger-author extraordinaire Kristy Turner deliciously refutes every excuse you've ever heard with 125 bursting- with-flavor vegan recipes for every meal of the day - including dessert! All those special ingredients are way more expensive. Not when you can make your own Homemade Seitan, Barbecue Sauce, Zesty Ranch Dressing, and Tofu Sour Cream. I could never give up cheese! You won't miss it at all with Tempeh Bacon Mac 'n' Cheese with Pecan Parmesan, Tofu Chevre, Citrus-Herb Roasted Beets with Macadamia Ricotta, or Mushroom Cheddar Grilled Cheese Sandwiches. What about brunch? Chickpea Scramble Breakfast Tacos, Lemon Cornmeal Waffles with Blueberry Sauce, and Caramel Apple-Stuffed French Toast are vegan breakfasts of champions! My friends won't want to come over for dinner. They will when they get a taste of Carrot Cashew Pate, Portobello Carpaccio, and Gnocchi alia Vodka.
But I scream for ice cream!Then you'll shriek over Dark Chocolate Sorbet, Mango Lassi Ice Cream, and from-scratch Oatmeal Raisin Ice Cream Sandwiches. If you're a waffling vegan newbie, on-the-fence vegetarian, or veg-curious omnivore, this book will banish your doubts. You'll find you can get enough protein, fit in at a pot luck, learn to love cauliflower, and enjoy pizza, nachos brownies, and more - without any animal products at all.
(Even vegan pros will discover some new tricks!) Colourful photographs throughout will have you salivating over Kristy's inventive, easy-to-follow recipes. So what are you waiting for? Get in the kitchen and leave your excuses at the door!
