"vegan planet" cookbook giveaway!

It is way past time to have another cookbook giveaway! This time, I am giving away Robin Robertson's revised edition of Vegan Planet. It's been dubbed the "vegan bible," "vegan joy of cooking" and the "ultimate vegan cookbook."




I tested for this book and I was so excited when Robin asked me to! When we first went vegan, this was the very first book I loved and cooked from. I was quite relieved at the time to know that vegan food does, indeed, taste great.

This new edition has revised older recipes, new information, as well as a bunch of new recipes. Robin has posted 30 of the recipes from the book on her page here. It's a great way to get to try some of the dishes from the book and see what all the excitement is about.

My original copy of Vegan Planet is being held together with rubber bands, so it was quite thrilling when I got my brand new copy of the revised edition.

Some of the amazing recipes I tested were:


CURRIED CAULIFLOWER PAKORAS

PENNE AND BUTTERNUT SQUASH WITH KALE PESTO

RED BEAN CAKE WITH CREAMY COCONUT SAUCE


SAFFRON COUSCOUS CAKE WITH SPRING VEGETABLE SAUTE

THREE-FLAVOR PANCIT

ZA'TAR SPICED BEAN PATTIES WITH CURRY SAUCE


On to the business side of this giveaway... leave a comment and like me on facebook or follow on twitter. All the handy follow-me buttons are at the top, right side of the page. Contest ends April 11 and the winner needs to email me by the end of that weekend. US and Canada residents only please.

Also, be sure to let your friends and family know that the great Meatout is March 20th. Eat vegan for one day and help the animals and the planet. Pledge HERE.

    I"m with you- yen years ago this was my first and still most beloved vegan cookbook- I"ve bought countless copies for friends and rely on a handful of her incredible recipes religiously, especially hen winning over skeptics. I"m thrilled there's a new version as mine, too, is battered and broken although always well loved.
