Vegan with a Vengeance : Over 150 Delicious, Cheap, Animal-Free Recipes…

The chocolate chip cookie recipe alone is worth the price of this book. Otherwise, too many soy/seitan recipes for my taste. I like tofu, just not every meal.

I tried a couple of the recipes in here with positive results (the mushroom risotto is especially yummy). Most of the entrees use tofu/tempeh/seitan, which might not be right for all readers. The soups look great, didn't try the baked goods (can't have gluten). The best thing about the book, though, is the author's style. I really enjoyed reading this cookbook, even if it's not the most useful one for me in the kitchen. ( )

I liked Isa's breezy style. The book makes you laugh, in addition to having yummy recipes. I'm fairly new to veganism, but the recipes were easy to follow and I enjoyed the results. The chickpea-broccoli casserole has become a comfort food recipe for my family. ( )

Interesting and tasty recipes that will be enjoyed by non-vegos too. Four words - Punk Rock Chickpea Gravy. Just try it! ( )

I first spotted this book in the local library. I have been a vegetarian for over twenty years and I am always looking for something new and this saucy little book with all of it's attitude spoke to me. I tried out quite a few of it's recipes, and then went out and bought my own copy. I have since then gone on to try almost all of the recipes in the book, and I love them all. There is so much flavour and texures which are so important in eating good food, and I have to say that this book helped me to become vegan. The Baking powder biscuits with white bean tempeh sausage crumble gravy is a favorite, as well as many or her brunch recipes, baking, deserts, mains, sides, sandwiches etc., There is so much to try! Here is great comfort food possibilities without the faux meat alternatives and an original flavour. The recipes have been made over and over again. I have gifted this book a few times. I have also noticed that I have not seen this book in the library for quite a long time... it is always out! ( )
