Book Description

Nov 1 2004
Veganism—the animal-free diet—is here to stay. And Dreena Burton, author of the bestselling The Everyday Vegan, is here to show you how the decision to "go green" doesn't mean you have to sacrifice nutrition or flavor, and in fact will make you and your family feel healthier and more alive.

Dreena and her husband became parents three years ago, and their decision to raise their daughter as vegan from birth has made the need for an animal-free diet that is fully nutritional all the more crucial. But as Dreena demonstrates in Vive le Vegan!, there's no need to panic: there are simple methods and delectable ingredients you can use that will allow you—whether you're single or have a family—to become vegan without having to be a rocket scientist. And who said that vegan meals lack pizzazz? Not when you can make:
Berry Hemp Smoothies, Fresh Jicama and Cucumber Slaw, Hearty Roasted Tomato Stew, Carrot-Shitake Spring Rolls, Chipotle Veggie Bean Burritos, Moroccan Chickpea Patties, Apple Cardamom Cake with Creamy Lemon Maple Frosting

The recipes in Vive le Vegan! also don't always require soy, given recent concerns about over-consumption, and many feature whole grains and hemp. They're also disarmingly easy to prepare. So it's time to give up your qualms about the vegan lifestyle and celebrate its vivid possibilities. Vive le vegan!

Now in its 5th printing!

Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

With its quintessentially vegan-sounding recipe names—Apple-Hemp Muffins, Balsamic-Garlic Flax Oil (to dip with bread), Millet-Amaranth Porridge, Vicki’s Hummus-Quinoa Casserole—this cookbook certainly has a specific audience. But vegan readers are in for a treat, because Burton (The Everyday Vegan) has compiled a trove of (mostly) fast and easy recipes for dishes that promise to deliver flavor and texture, and use fresh produce as well as whole grains (like kamut, brown rice, quinoa and millet), beans (including adzuki, kidney, navy and chickpeas) and flours (such as spelt, barley and oat). All dishes are animal-free, and many are wheat-free, as well. In addition to the recipes (which run the gamut from appetizers to main dishes to desserts), there are sections on feeding vegan babies and toddlers, and a helpful glossary that explains such ingredients as blackstrap molasses and hemp seed nut butter.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic book, even for non-veg! Feb 6 2007
By Judy
Format:Paperback
I finally bought this book on the recommendation of many trusted friends, and I was not disappointed. Within the first three days, I had made 5 recipes. Every single thing that I have made from this book is totally delicious, and easy too.

You could feed a lot of these recipes to a non-vegan, and they would never know the difference. Actually, I am not vegan or even vegetarian, I just love healthy cooking, and this book suits me to a T. If you have any desire to get this book, do so immediately. It is one of the best recipe books I own.

When (not if!) you get this book, you must make the Moroccan Chickpea Patties with the recommended sauces. To die for! Also, the Banana Oat Bundles are wonderful little breakfast gems, and the Sunflower Lentil Pie is as delicious tasting as it is weird sounding.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dreena is the Queen of Vegan Cookies! Sep 14 2007
Format:Paperback
I have had this book for a couple of years now and the recipes have certainly become staples in my cooking repetoire. A relaxing Sunday morning just isn't the same without Dreena's banana pancakes-they are so simple and delicious. Honestly, I have tried so many of the recipes in this book and they have not only impressed me, but my omni family members and friends as well. Dreena's flavour combinations are pleasing to my more adventurous palate but also keep the children in my life clamouring for seconds. She makes eating nutritious meals both simple and incredibly satisfying. I would highly suggest trying her creamy hummus, the stork muffins, the banana bundles, the lemon-herb tofu, and the three-bean curry tomato soup. Once you are full of all those wholesome recipes-turn to the dessert chapter. Dreena's cookie recipes have proven over and over again to be the best vegan cookies I have ever made (I do own over 80 vegan cookbooks). I even did a blind recipe taste-test with a local vegetarian group and Dreena's chocolate chip cookies reigned supreme. The peanut-butter cookies are just as amazing. Honestly, it is worth buying the book just to have these cookie recipes in your house for all of those special occassions.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best gifts I've ever received! April 11 2007
Format:Paperback
My very thoughtful boyfriend gifted me with this at Christmas. I've already stained the pages and marked out my favourite recipes, which are basically foolproof to make. Despite being a student, I find it easy to make the big batches of food (like the Earthy Lentil Soup which makes probably 12 servings), then just refrigerate or freeze the remainder for later (and even easier) meals!

If you've ever searched for a lovely French toast recipe that's vegan-friendly, your search can now come to an end! I've even won over non-vegans with it!
