Book Reviews of Vegan with a Vengeance : Over 150 Delicious, Cheap, Animal-Free Recipes That Rock

Book Review: One of the best cookbooks I ever got as a gift
Summary: 5 Stars

My non-vegetarian husband was very excited to give me this book for Mother's Day and I can see why! The recipes are amazing and the book reads very easily. It is less textbook style and more casual in manner. To hear a non-vegetarian get excited about scrambled tofu was a dream come true! He had book marked a number of recipes for me to try and has enjoyed every one of them. Being vegetarian in a non-vegetarian household is so much easier when everything I cook is tasty and well received.

I am thrilled to have such a wonderful book that does not scream "pigs are tortured" because we are vegetarians and vegans who choose our lifestyles because we are already compassionate towards living beings. Its less political and is more of a lifestye book, which I love. The punk kitsch doesn't hurt either! A great book for Vegetarians and Vegans...and for those who have to feed the occasional meat eater.

Summary of Vegan with a Vengeance : Over 150 Delicious, Cheap, Animal-Free Recipes That Rock

In Vegan with a Vengeance, Isa Chandra Moskowitz, cohost of the vegan cooking show, The Post Punk Kitchen, brings the do-it-yourself, community-driven ethos of punk rock into the kitchen. Her cooking philosophy embraces being kind to animals (all recipes are completely animal-product free) and your wallet--while being creative and having fun in the process. She emphasizes fresh ingredients over heavily processed corporate brand-name foods and says that, like good music, cooking is best when it's an innovative, experimental, and completely real experience. Her inspired recipes--covering all meals of the day and influenced by dishes from around the world--include:

Asparagus and Sun-dried Tomato Frittata--Fresh Mango Summer Rolls--Pumpkin Waffles--Tofu Dill Salad Sammiches--Green Goddess Garlic Pizza--Sweet Potato Crepes with Cilantro-Tamarind Sauce--Brooklyn Pad Thai--Banana Split Pudding Brownies--Fauxstess Cups--Gingerbread Apple Pie

PLUS: - Lists of essential tools and post punk pantry items - Suitable substitutes for those without all the fancy kitchen gear and ingredients - Inventive twists on classic dishes - Handy resources for vegans and punks - The story of The Post Punk Kitchen - Rockin' recipe intros and descriptions - Even fun facts and tips from Isa's cat, Fizzle!
