My favorite recipe is Mac & Cheeze made with Nutritional Yeast and miso paste!!!!!!!!!!! Yummmmmm !!!!!

That book looks like so much fun. My favorite homemade recipes are scrambled tofu and veggie burgers. So many possibilities!

The two volumes of Anna Thomas' "Vegetarian Epicure" are still - after more than 30 years - the cookbooks I turn to most often. Her soups are excellent, especially her gazpacho which I usually make three or four times every summer.

My favorite recipe to make at home is eggplant lasagna. I've made it probably 20 times for friends and family. I make it with soy cheese, and it has lots of veggies in it. It's pure comfort food - perfect for a fall evening!

Great to have a book of easy and quick recepies completely vegan!! I hope I win it!!

WE love to make Heathly Slaw. We take Cabbage and Lentil Sprouts and Mung Beans. Organic Red Onions and Sulfite free Balsamic Vinegar.

Hi! I'm Heidi, I'm 19 and I have been a Vegetarian since I was 13. And a couple of months ago I decided to get serious about my eating habits, and it has been the best decision for me! I feel so much better physically and mentally. Cooking is one of my joys and when I have a free minute here and there I am searching online and in books for new and fun recipes! My favorite food is Lasagna, so naturally I created a new recipe using a spinich sauce, including zucchini and cauliflower! And it is delicious!

Thank you so much!!!! I'd love
have one copy!!!

This sounds like a great cookbook. I would like to win it! I hope you will pick me!
Thank you,
Sharon.

I have so many favorite recipes that it is difficult to choose just one. Since I have such a sweet tooth, I suppose I'll go with vegan chocolate cake. Mmmmm!

I love making pasta and beans with tomato sauce. It's the ultimate comfort food, especially when I load up the sauce with mushrooms, carrots and onions and, my favorite, garlic.

Favorite vegan recipe to make at home? Rice Noodles with tofu, zucchini and Thai peanut sauce. Easy, filling, and delicious! Although I always eat WAY too much of it... :)

I make a pretty good tabooli salad from scratch. Also vegan potato salad. I've been a vegetarian since at least 1991.

Hmmm... My favorite recipe to make at home is probably Tofu Fish Sticks from Vegan Lunchbox and double stuffed baked potatos. Yum! Childhood favorites.

Heard about this book on vegan.com. Sounds great!

I love to make black eyed peas over rice.

I love making chili with vegan meatballs and lots of spices!

it would have to be vegan corned beef and wild rice/mushroom casserole with chocolate peanut butter cupcakes for dessert.

I would really love to win this book.

My favorite thing to make at home is veg S.O.S.

Thanks

This book looks fantastic! I'm always scouring the internet looking for new recipes. I get tired of the same old things all the time!

I grew up in a house full of kitchen book, from the greatest encyclopedia of french cuisine to the latest trends in molecular recipes. Unfortunately, I couldn't find (in my home or at the store) a real ''bible'' of vegan food. I think that I have now and really would like to win it! So, my favourite recipe I would like to share must be this simple desert: apples-au-four! Simply take an apple per person. Carefully take away the hearts by digging with a sponn (and do not pierce the bottom of the apples). Fill the hole with brown sugar, dried raisins, a little bit of margarine and maple syrup. Simply put in the oven at 350 until you reach the desired consistance (wheter you like your apples still crunchy of more tender) for about 30-45 minutes and voilà! Bon appétit!

Being vegetarian for 13 years, my fav recipe this time of year would have to be pumpkin soup. YUM!

I've browsed this cookbook, it is fabulous - I would love to have it!

My current favorite recipe that was so so so easy to make I found in a vegetarian times magazine: Raspberry Fool
(the original recipe called for greek non-fat yogurt, but I substituted soy yogurt to great success)

8-10 ounces of raspberries (frozen or otherwise)
3 tbs. of honey
1/8 c. of sugar plus a little stevia (stevia also my substitution)
1/2 tsp almond extract
2 tbs. orange zest
2 tbs. sliced almonds

1. Bring raspberries, sugar and stevia to a boil in pan. Simmer about 10 min. Chill in a bowl for 10 min.
2. whisk in a bowl yogurt, honey, almond extract and zest. Fold in the berry concoction for a marbled effect. (Leave a little sauce for garnish alond with slivered almonds)

It is so good, so fast, so easy.

I do not have a favorite vegan recipe because i simply love too many to choose from, but i do have a favorite vegan dessert. Its called Vegan Pzookie! A Vegan Pzookie consist of a big cookie, vegan ice-cream, and vegan chocolate fudge. You may change the ice-cream and cookie type to your own personal choice. You preheat your oven first. You bake the cookie to whatever amount you may like. When the cookis is done serve it warm, add 3 scoops of ice-cream on top of cookie then add the chocolate syrup! Bon Appetite!

I have so many favorites... but muffins in general is a fav.!

My broccoli-tofu stir-fry is a rockin' recipe to make at home!

I'm a horrible cook with no time, so my favourite recipe is a can of Primo lentil soup mixed with two cups of cooked minute rice. Good hot AND cold :-)

Just becoming vegan and LOVING this website! Thank you for being here!

My favourite recipe to make is homemade soup. There are a variety of basic vegan soup recipes that I like and I often jus throw in whatever vegetables I have in the house, so the end result tastes different every time!

Hi! One of my favorite recipes at home is a version of espinacas garbanzos, or spinach with chick peas. I usually use onions, garlic, a good amount of olive oil, spinach, chick peas, and sometimes a splash of tamari, some hot chili paste, a little curry powder...it's very versatile. :)

It would change my life to win this cookbook. I still eat eggs and cheese and am overweight. I'm proud to be a vegetarian, but I'm guilty of doing great harm to my body by eating such high fat foods and I'm especially guilty for harming the animals I profess to love by eating eggs and dairy. I'm stuck thinking that I will never enjoy eating again if I have to give up real cheese. Please help me change my mind! In turn, I will do my best to change the minds of the people in my life (who profess to love animals, but continue to eat them).

What an exciting time for vegans! This book is a true marking for progress of the conscious eater.

As far as a dinner-type meal, it has to be a veggie stir-fry! Served with either mie noodles or rice, and smothered in a yummy homemade sauce, it's one of the yummiest things ever.

I'd love to win this cookbook! As far as popular recipes at our house is non-sausage or non-brats fried with carmelized onions and red peppers.

Thanks for being here!

Peace, love and understanding.

Favorite recipe: This year it was the moussaka I made using organic peppers and tomatoes from my front yard, plus whole grain pasta, onion, garlic, soy mik, egg substitute, salt and pepper. Super yum!

OMG! Finally a cook book for me. I love creating great meals and since becoming vegan this has opened up so many ideas. This book looks like it will also help heaps to make super fast meals that my kids will love too

I love to make hummus at home. It's so much better than any packaged stuff, and it's so quick and easy!

My favourite thing to make at home is casserole and it turns out different every time, depending on what's in the fridge! There's always some potato and spinach involved.

Vegan Shepherd's Pie
This pie is the perfect comfort food for a cool fall evening. It's true... I love this pie...strong taste for me...i love potatoes very much...

My fave recipe is for bean burritos! So good!

My favorite recipe to make at home is vegan Mac & Cheese made with cheddar Daiya. I'm totally obsessed with it! (recipe on my blog) - Yum!

I would love to win 1000 vegan recipes! I could try a new one every day and have years of new things to try

This book would be a great help to me, jumping from a vegetarian to a vegan.

this looks like it could be helpful to a new vegan such as I. Win or lose I need this book.

Oh! Awesome! My favorite dish to make at home is actually out of one of her other books...Quinoa/Adkuzi bean tabbouleh, made with cilantro instead of parsley. Easy, delicious and nutritious.

I think one of my favorite vegan recipies is vegan chocolate cake, I'm such a sweets addict and it's so simple!
After that I'm a big fan of falafel. Again, simple and awesome.

I love making vegan corn "chowder". Lots of fresh corn, leeks, red bell peppers, and fake bacon, super yummy!

I try to make new things as much as possible, but a simple tofu scramble is hard to beat and endlessly adaptable.

Dear VegCookingBlog or PETA,

Perfect for Fall, my favorite Vegan Recipe is a main dish with Butternut Squash, and EASY.

What you need:

Large Pan, Large Casserole Dish

Preset Oven for 400-450

Vegetables:
Butternut Squash 1/2 cut into 1 in. cubes, use the other half for next time.

Zucchini, use 1/3 and slice

1 Medium sized Red Onion chopped

1/2 Red pepper chopped

2 Garlic Cloves minced

Additional: you can add whatever vegetables you like.

Mushrooms, frozen peas and carrots, Cauliflower

Then add Salt and Pepper and mix all together and scoop vegetables into the Casserole Dish

Cook for 55 min. or until squash is tender.

I love to make Vegan stuffing for my whole family. They are meat eating, but they really enjoy it and I know it is a step in the right direction! My influence, activism, and example are vital to helping animals. I can also help humans become more enlightened about the harm and death that we inflict on a daily basis. Though I do a lot of "big things" outside of the home, small steps make a difference too inside the home!

My wife loves it when I make sushi. Everything is vegan and there's no fish or fish eggs. It's just nori, sushi rice, and various fruits and vegetables wrapped together. It's fantastic.

this is my own creation, but i'm running out of ideas: mix near east rice with tomato, avocado and minced garlic. add italian dressing and combine. tastes like butter!

My favorite vegan recipe is vegan to begin with! Pasta Fagioli or as my Italian family says pasta fazool! I love making it from scratch and then sprinkling Parma on top!

This book looks awesome I have to check it out

My favorite vegan thing to make has got to be chili. It's different every time and I love trying out new recipes! I would love this book.

I love homemade tomato soup with fresh organic tomatoes from the farmers' market!

I love to make vegan chili and I put in 3 different types of beans and also add in lots of chopped zucchini & carrots as well as tomatoes, peppers, & corn. Of my in-laws only my niece who lives out of state is vegan and when she came for a recent visit I made a large crock pot full for a large family gathering at my mother in-law's home and let my niece know there wasn't any meat in it so it was safe for us to eat. My other in-laws couldn't believe how great it tasted and still don't believe there wasn't any meat in it. The best testament was the fact that of all the dishes that night the only thing that didn't have any leftovers was my chili!

Szechwan peanut noodles! Using veggie broth instead of chicken. It's fast, easy, and so gooood! Also, it can be served at any temperature!

My daughter just went veggie, I am on my way too...looking for new recipes...

My favorite recipe calls for vegetables, mostly yellow squash and zucchini grown in our own backyard. My husband and I spend a lot of time watering, weeding, watching and loving...loving the Earth that gives us these amazing plants, loving the weather that shines upon us, loving the animals that play around us, and loving each other in this life. Our recipe calls for: fresh home grown veggies, love and a smile. Works out to a fantastic dinner every time and so easy to make!

So many recipes, so little time....my favorite things to make are any soups, muffins, and of course, chocolate cake! Hope I win!

Have yet to find favourite recipe as my daughter and I are going to participate in a 30 day Vegan Challenge but not until November. Guess we'll find something to enjoy.

We were eating depression style before it was cool.

Here is my favorite:

EGGLESS, MILKLESS, BUTTERLESS CAKE

3/4 cup brown sugar

1-1/2 cups water

1/3 cup vegetable oil

1 cup raisins

1 apple, cored and chopped

Add to raisin mixture (it will foam). Add remaining dry ingredients. Mix well. Pour into a greased 9-inch-square pan and bake in 325 degree oven for 50 to 55 minutes. Let cool at least 10 minutes before serving.

My favorite vegan recipe is an old fashioned veggie burger made with all fresh veggies and frozen so I have some for the entire week!
This book looks amazing and is definitely a must have for a new Vegan such as moi!

My favorite recipe would be vegan Chimichanga - Chicken flavored tofu, rice, black beans, Romesco Sauce grilled onions and green chilies, wrapped in
deep fried flour tortilla

I make a good scramble many mornings with tofu, potatoes, onions, and garlic. I douse it in chili powder, quick and painless!

Must be the best chocolate vegan cupcakes from the vegan cupcakes take over the world cookbook! Super easy and Superdooper yum!!!

My favorite things to make at home are the chickpea patties from the Veganomicon or Black Bean burgers.

Mac and Cheese is a huge comfort food for me, as well as soups and grilled cheese. Using soy cheese has not swayed my opinions of these delicious comfort foods.

My favorite vegan meal in the summertime is a simple tomato sandwich -- toast, vegan mayo, and a juicy ripe tomato. Yum!

I. Need. This.

I love to cook and this would be a perfect addition to my kitchen, since I recently became a vegan. I'm definitely looking for some new recepies.

potato leek soup: cook onion, carrot and celery in pan add 2 leeks garlic and 2 large or 4 small potatoes, salt, pepper and 4 c water and 4 c veggie stock. bring to boil, reduce the heat and let simmer for 30 minutes. blend with immersion blender or spoon into regular blender until smooth.

My fave vegan recipe is what I call "Garfield's Vegan Lasagna", using blended spinach & tofu as a substitute for the cheese filling, and vegan shredded cheese on top. YUM!
~ Emma :)

I love making homemade seitan. I use Italian seasonings and veggie chicken broth. It's delicious.

oh there are so many recipes and foods I love! right now I'm loving a recipe I found for vegan macaroons! SO GOOD! I also love collard green wraps, they are my new obsession! and a nice warm pot of vegan chili is my familys favorite!

I love many of the same dishes as many of you have mentioned.However,I've only been a vegetarian for a little over two years.When I decided to give up meat, the one recipe I thought I'd miss the most was chicken&dumplings. Then I figured out how to make it with the veggie chik'n strips.No,it doesn't taste like grandma's,but it satisfies my craving for dumplins and it's healthier too! I would love to have the book to learn more vegan recipes. It would be a
big help in making the transformation from vegetarian into vegan.

Chai pumpkin pie, using silken tofu to replace eggs, of course.

My favorite vegan recipe is lasagna with tofu "ricotta" and lots of yummy marinara sauce. Even my meat-eating husband loves it!

Mmm, Robin Robertson is my favorite cookbook author.

My favorite recipe is a simple rice & lentils recipe with caramelized onions! Can't go wrong with it!

My favorite vegan recipe is my famous homemade Palak Paneer. Trust me, it's to die for !
Alicia Webster

I love making mexican casserole for my mum. Veggie crumbles and tofutti sour cream make this a dish I make at least once a month in bulk.

Yum yum.

My favourite meal is spicy tomato soup with noodles - it can eat it all year round and never get tired of it.

I am new to the vegan lifestyle, I have been vegetarian for a while. This would be a great book to start my collection. I am always trying to find recipes I can make for my kids.

My favorite thing to cook at home is "chicken Parmesan" . I use Morningstar Farms chicken patties, a little marinara and soy cheese. I bake the patty according to the directions, top with marinara, cheese and then put it back in the oven until the cheese melts.

Any kind of salad, and I also love to make chili.

I like to make chickenless chicken salad (made with chickpeas) its always a hit at BBQs!

I gave up meat years ago, but still don't know how to make too many interesting dishes that still have adequate protein. I am inspired to try and would love to win this.

My favorite vegan recipe to make at home is hamburger helper. I use a creamy cheddar soy cheese and boca crumbles with some canned diced tomatoes and a packet of taco seasoning...mmmmmm, it's soooooo good!

My favourite vegan recipes at the moment are a broccoli/arame/sesame & noodle toss (mmmm) and for dessert, veganized butter tarts. (found in Sarah Kramer's 'How it all Vegan'.

Fave dish(es) to make at home are herb biscuits and mock tuna salad (made from chikpeas, celery, mustard vegenaise and spices) YUM!

My favorite vegan recipe is caulimash
You take one bag of frozen cauliflower and stem until tender.
Mash the cauliflower with a fork add fresh cracked pepper, powered vegetable broth, and nutritional yeast to taste.
This is a very simple side dish and it is so good for you.

It's difficult to pick a favourite, but back when I first became vegan I quickly became tired of stir fries and veggie burgers, and discovered I didn't have to give up some of my favourite dishes from before, including General Tao's chicken. I found a great recipe that called for frozen tofu in place of chicken, and have since tried it with chik'n strips, seasoned frozen tofu and seitan. The meat was never my favourite part of any of the dishes I ate before (BV), so it is easy to come up with a replacement that I do like for any of those type of recipes. I'd say this was one of my first favourite specifically vegan recipes (though I added a bunch of veggies to the sauce).

This will be an interesting book to have. I love to see what recipes are in store for vegans like me.

I am always looking for quick and easy vegan recipes. I love websites such as www.vegweb.com where average people post their vegan recipes with pictures and users rate them. This way I can find simple meals to make with simple ingredients and I know they'll be yummy!

I'd love to start eating more vegan foods!

My favorite (since last week) is a vegan chocolate cake, with just a dusting of powdered sugar.

I love making vegan baked beans, with veggie bacon and boca crumbles. It's easy and so yummy.

My favorites are any kind of veggie chili and macaroni and cheez (made with nutritional yeast). I'm also a fan of the easiest and most beloved vegan sandwich ever...PBJ!

My favorite recipe to make at home is Thai curries. Take a can of coconut milk, vegan curry paste (red, masaman, or panang are my favorites) and viola! Thai curry. serve over brown rice with steamed broccoli.

I would love to win this cookbook! I have so many vegan favorites I love to cook. My fave right now is an tofu and mixed veggie stir fry with jasmine rice.

I love doing something simple and making a BLT with Boca Bacon and lots of veggies... lettuce, tomatoe, sprouts, and pickles... tastes great!!!

definitely hummus... and I like to make a chickpea veggie stir fry thing, too.

My favorite vegan meal is pasta!!! ..with veggie sausage, of course!! ;)
I looove it!!! :D

i need to win this book so i can become vegan. i don't have a favorite vegan recipe.

this book looks amazing! I've been trying to go totally vegan for a while, and i bet this would be wicked helpful!

I just became a vegan and do not have a very special recipe to pass along like the rest of the posts. BUT,I would love to win 1,000 Vegan Recipes book to discover a favorite recipe to share with other individuals whom decide to go vegan :)

My favorite recipe is Italian Tofu Scramble! Delicious.

My favourite vegan receipe is my Vegan Spagetti Bolognaise

Using dried soya protein, soaked in boiling water until tender. Diced onions fried until translucent in olive oil, diced sweet baby plum tomatos, grated carrot, sliced mushrooms, tinned chopped tomatoes, tomato puree, bay leaves, chopped garlic, a little lo-salt to taste and a slight dash of hot pepper sauce, served with chopped fresh oregano and black pepper, and with wholemeal spagettini pasta!

It makes for a really tastey and hearty winter meal for days when you feel either like cuddling up next to a nice warm fire, or for days when you feel truely starving!!!

I really enjoy making some vegetable stir fry with tofu mixed in. It's super simple, yet so delicious. :) hope I win.

veggie chili

I love making waffles. Vegan Sweet Potato/Yam Waffles with Toasted Pecans from Spice Island Vegan, to be exact. Love that recipe!

My favorite recipe is for Butternut Squash and Black Bean Chili from Robin Robertson's book Vegan Planet. It's great for this time of year.

Love the idea of a "Fast" icon, sounds brilliantly useful!

My favorite vegan creation is my to-die-for curry pot pie. Although my shepherd's pie is a close second. No fake meat subs for me, thank you.

Need to work on my baked goods!

Mushy Pasta - Vegan penne pasta, mushrooms, onion, broccoli, zucchini, soy, wiestershire substitute and a small amount of maple syrup. Quick and YUMMY!! My favourite!

I make terrific vegan fajitas. They are my signature dish. I use the Ezekiel sprouted grain tortillas, stir up some delicious red, green, and yellow peppers along with mushrooms and red onion (you can throw in some small extra firm tofu cubes too), season with garlic, salt, pepper, paprika, and cayenne, add some slices of home-grown avocado, and voila! YUM.

I don't have a favorite recipe. I just decided today to become a vegan after watching the video. I'd love to win a copy to start learning how to cook vegan food.

As many fancy recipes as I try and love, I will always come back to my fav black beans over coconut rice topped with lime juice. yummm

My favorite vegan snack is freshly made hummus, which consists of chickpeas, lemon juice and tahini. Love to use as a dip with carrots or pitas or as a spread on veggie wraps. Just yummy!

I found a really good and simple garbanzo bean salad. Everyone I make it for wants the receipe.

My favorite lunch: take a Vidalia chopper and chop some carrots, onion, broccoli, zucchini, cucumber, tomato, cauliflower and green pepper. Add some mixed nuts and a little dressing. All bite sized and delicious.

MUSHROOM BURGERS, MMMMM :D

This book would be an awesome way to start out my vegan adventure!

Oooh how exciting! :D

one of my fav. (FAST) sandwiches at lunch is:
rye bread (or bread of choice)
greek olive hummus
apple (sliced thick)
salt & pepper

just layer that baby up and dig in, it might sound odd, but it is SOOOOOO yummy!

xo

Vegan Sushi or Vegan Pizza!

My favorite cookbook is Vegan with a Vengeance. My favorite dish so far is Chile sin Carne al Mole. Delicious!!

My favorite vegan recipe is tofu-spinach lasagna! It's got a great balance of protein, fat, and carbs, and was even able to delight my meat-eating mother into a second helping!

My favorite recipe would have to be tofu pot pie in your eye from "Don't Feed The Bears"

squash :)

i should win this cause i am cool!!1
i love all vegan foods cause theyre delicious!!!!!!

SAVE THE MONKEYS !
dONT USE PALM OIL
DONT HAVE GELATINE!!!!

ETC ETC

LLOVE RECIPES (HINT HINT)

:):):) XXXXXXXXXXOOOOOOOOO

I just started the vegan lifestyle a few weeks ago, and I have been a vegatarian for a little under a year. Last week though I found a cupcake recipe that called for chocolate mouse topping. It was mostly made of tofu, chocolate, and soy milk but it was sooooooo good. I never thought I would be having tofu in my cupcake!

I honestly don't have a fav vegan meal; but I've recently decided that I'd like to try and be a vegan. My mom is gravely ill and I believe that part of what got her there was her diet.

I'd really love this book.

Thanks

Thank you!

amazing stuff!

my favourite vegan recipes to make at home are vegan pumpkin pie and pumpkin spice muffins. anyone see a pattern? hah! i love pumpkin.

My Fav recipe is.........

VEGAN CHOCOLATE CAKE... Best ever.

and.. anything! I love to cook! Pizza... vege stack.. lentil curry.........................

xox

My favorite vegan recipe to make at home is Chicken Fried Tofu!
Ummm, so much healthier than chicken. I make it with garlic and onion laced mashed redskins and sauteed spinach!
I press and freeze the tofu and then after thawing I marinate it in a little soy sauce. Cover with a little homemade batter (flour, nutritional yeast, parsley, dried onion, salt and pepper) and fry in a small amount of olive oil!

I have so many favorite recipes, it's hard to choose! But I have to say that I love things that are super easy (and sweet!), so here's one: whoopie pies.

3 tsp Ener-G Egg Replacer
4 tbsp warm water
Vegan-friendly chocolate cake mix (Duncan Hines?)
1 cup Earth Balance
1 bag vegan semi-sweet chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 350. Whisk egg replacer and water in small bowl until frothy. Add to large bowlfilled with remaining ingredients and stir until all powders wet. Refrigerate for twenty minutes. Take an ice cream scoop to drop large balls of dough on greased cookie sheet. Bake for 9-12 minutes, or until hot and gooey. Let sit 5 minutes before eating.

My Faves....vegan chocolate strawberry pie! and of course nachos with veggie ground round, soya cheese, and non dairy sour cream, yumm!

MY favorite vegan recipe is vegan chocolate chip cookies from the Skinny Bitch in the Kitch book. I love the fact that it uses whole wheat flour and, instead of eggs, it uses molasses. It doesn't even use Ener-G egg replacer, which speaks to how natural the recipe is. (although I don't mind using ener-g).

I love the veggie burgers, there so good, and the veggies wraps. Salsa on them taste great!!!I would love this book. I would go crazy with these recipes. Thankyou, Linda P.

My girlfriend makes the most amazing vegan brownies. I don't know how she does it, but they're so fudgey and good.... love em.

My favourite dish would probably be sweet chili veggie burgers, nom nom nom.
I hope I win this, because I'm 12 and could really use a book to help my 'rents cook, and hopefully give me ideas so I can help out with the cooking!

I love making tofu cheesecake. So creamy and delicious, it's even better than the real thing! And when I've served it to guests they've agreed it's tasty and looks really nice too (I usually dress it up with a sprig of mint and a few fresh berries). The perfect dessert!

I would love to win this cookbook! My favorite vegan recipes are: Tomato, Potato, and Chickpea Stew with Vegan Dumplings; Mac & "Cheeze" with nutritional yeast; Lentil Shepherd's Pie, Baked Sesame Ginger Tofu; and vegan muffins.

falafel

This cookbook seems amazing - I have seen great reviews of this cookbook on the many vegan blogs I visit. I would love to have one!

My favorite vegan food is chili, it's easy and fast.

My favorite vegan recipe is bowtie spinach pasta.

One of my favorite dishes to make is minestrone. It has tons of veggies, some pasta, yummy tomatoes, and it's such a comfort food. :)

So many recipes in one book...how perfect!

Peanut Brittle!

Melt sugar in a pan and add peanuts, then leave it to cool untill its hard :)

My favorite vegan recipe is for chickpea cutlets from the Veganomicon cookbook. Mashed chickpeas mixed with seitan... so good!

I would love this cookbook as my mum had brain damage from a car accident so she wasn't able to teach me any cooking when I was younger, and I am STILL NO GOOD at cooking, so any help is good!

I would love this cookbook as my mum had brain damage from a car accident so she wasn't able to teach me any cooking when I was younger, and I am STILL NO GOOD at cooking, so any help is good! Fave vegan nosh is chana pruri - available from my local Indian - chickpea mixture on chapati. MMmmmm

veggie-loaf with roasted green beans...YUM!!

This book looks amazing! If I don't win it, I will have to buy it!!

My favorite vegan recipe (especially during this time of year) is Pumpkin Muffins! Yummy!!!

Am new to Veganism (5 weeks) and have been looking for recipes as "jumping off" points. So far, my favorite concoction is Creamy Rustic Sundried Tomato & Spinach over pasta.

I really enjoy Robin's cookbooks!

My favorite vegan recipe is adapted from Vegan Dad's recipe for 'sausages'-- vital wheat gluten, seasonings, mashed beans, etc. Easy and economical--and tastes great!

I veganized my mom's taco salad and serve it with vegan chipotle ranch. It's good enough to eat all the time, which we do--1-2 times per week!

My favourite vegan recipe is my homemade veggie soup. Use veggie stock and throw in beans (pre-soaked or can) and veggies (frozen or fresh).

I am a brand new vegan and could definitely use more receipes. This book sounds great.

I make a mean "potato boat" ... kind of a twice-baked potato but stuffed with pureed yellow squash and cumin instead of cheese.

I gave up meat for health reasons several years ago, and a year ago was challenged to go the whole way and become vegan. It is probably the single best thing I have done healthwise, and not only for me, my husband is happy to go along with it. We both feel better and, happily, look better! Our favourite meals are curries served with brown rice.

Sounds like such a great book. I am a vegetarian right now and am wanting to become vegan. I need to learn some recipes. I wish I had a favoriate to post and soon I will have some to share. I am sure I will have to catch myself at first making sure not to add butter or cheese..or not to eat out with anything cooked in it.I am a pizza lover ( cheese ) maybe there are other pizzas I can fix at home that are vegan..even if not, It is important to me to do this because so many animals suffer for dairy products as well.
Lori Denise

I love vegan baked beans on toast. Heaven!

My favorite is to roast fresh tomatoes, onions and zucchini with olive oil and garlic. Then I toss it with pasta or spoon it over rice. I've also added veg broth to it and made a nice soup. It's a great basic that I can do very quickly after work.

my fav recipe is vegan oreo cheesecake!

My fav recipe to make at home is Sweet Potato soup. It's thick and delicious w/ a bit of zing from the Indian spice in it.
Yummy!! Wish I had some now.

Some of my favorite recipes are from Lauren Ulm's Vegan Yum Yum blog:

Crispy Sweet and Sour Seitan
Yucatan Seitan
Creamy Tomato Pasta

My favorite recipe is from Viva le Vegan by Dreena Burton. It is the Sunflower Lentil Pie. I've made it dozens of times for friends and family and never hear an unkind word about it. Although that may have more to do with my friends and family than my cooking skills.

I love soups best. I make a fantastic vegetable soup with whatever's in season, thickening the base by overboiling potatoes until they break down.

eggplant lasagna with mushrooms. Yum!!

My favourite recipe has GOT to be the PPK's Chewy Chocolate Cookies simply because every non-veg I know loves them and admits 'Oh yeah, vegan food can be lovely after all...' Which is always a good little step in the right direction ;) Wait until they try my vegan lasagna! :)

salad with tofu is easy and great

Yay! This book looks great. A favorite recipe of mine for those cold nights is portabella mushroom stroganoff. It's good for just any night of the week or for impressing friends and family!

i love to make vegetable soup
with tofu

first i boil all sorts of veggies until they are soft,i use:

carrots
potatoes
tomatoes
squash

then i add cubed squares of tofu
with some pepper seasonings and salt

its delish on cold days

Refried bean quesa-free-dillas!
Or twice baked potatoes.
It's hard to decide.

Well I love food lol but I recently I made this one pasta dish and it was amazing kind of like ziti well any who it consist of pasta obviously, but try to stay with something smaller like penne or something like that cause you def do not want goo goo is eww lol well first you cook the pasta I like putting garlic in the water I cook the pasta cause it gives it the flavor without so many side effects as for what else goes in is the best instead of just getting red cherry tomatoes some stores also sell yellow ones which are a bit sweeter I like to get both I cut them in halves and usually the time I am done doing that my pasta is done and ready to be strained but leave some water you don’t want it to end up to dry when you are done straining your pasta I put it back on the stove and add a pinch of red pepper just to give it a little zip and I also add the tomatoes I earlier cut in halves mix that all up cause the heat from the pasta will cook the tomatoes you don’t want to overcook your tomatoes your not making sauce well after mixing everything get out a pan that you can put in the oven empty all ingredients into the pan and add your fav vegan chesses/or vegetarian I like mozzarella yumyum perhaps a bit of parmesan as well mix it so cheese is everywhere then sprinkle more on the top and put in the oven at like 350-325 until cheese browns...o and its also just as good without cheese so all you people out there that don’t like cheese will like this meal too

This may sound like I'm sucking up, but I have to say my favorite vegan recipe is one I learned on this blog: Chickpea Parsley dip! It is soooo amazingly tasty and easy to make. I make it every time we have guests and none of them have yet tired of the repeat!

My stepson is coming home from college for Thanksgiving! He has only become a vegetarian in the last year or so and I have done pretty good with quick meatless dishes when he is home. I want to make this holiday even more special for him by including some new and creative and meatless dishes just for him.

My favorite vegan recipe... depends. The first thing to come to mind is dessert... Peanut Butter Chocolate Tofu Mousse Pie... graham crust (homemade), tofu, chocolate, PB, vanilla, a little sugar... you know the drill.

Man, I think I have to go make one right now. That sounds too good! LOL

This book looks so fun! My favorite recipe is either scrambled tofu or butternut squash soup.

My favorite vegan recipe is my homemade granola, with dried cherries, blueberries, mangoes, sunflower seeds, carob chips, walnuts, cashews, rolled oats and barley, all mixed with walnut oil and agave nectar. It is delicious on Soy Delicious vanilla ice cream!

My name is Autumn and I started bein Vegan when I was 7, I love an awesome vegie wrap, put any kind of vegtable in a tortilla wrap in any sause u like. Yum!! Hope I win!!

Being a college student, my favorite vegan food to make is pasta w/vegan meatballs and marinara sauce : )

VEGAN MEAT BALL CHILI.

CONVERTS A LOT OF MEAT EATERS.

my boyfriend and i would've starved to death when we were broke and just out of college if it weren't for my big pots of homemade chana.

Favourite really? Almost every vegan recipe is.. as weird as it sounds Maple Flax Seed Bread. Yuum! Yeast, whole wheat flower, flax, bran and wheat germ with some warm water or soy beverage. I used to sell it at a farmers market and people would love it so much that they ate the entire loaf before they got back to the car! :D

I'd love to have this book! I'm new at this, si Id ont know many recipes.
But I love veggie lasagna! yummy!

As a new Vegan, this would be absolutely awesome! My husband who swore that he would never follow suit, well, guess what?!?! I've cooked some absolutely awesome dishes and he is right in line with me now! He's feeling a lot better and he is enjoying my new creativity in the kitchen. So are the kids(minus the 8 yr old VegePhobe but we're working on him). Even my babysitter and her boyfriend are starting to fall in line! This sure would help to add to that creativity and keep them begging for more!

A favourite recipe of my homes is dahl. We have a very simple easy recipe that we eat at least once a week over rice and steamed broccoli but we can also jazz it up with a selection of potatoes, peas, corn, tomatoes, peanut butter (yes its good), orange juice, spinach, coconut milk... the list goes on and on and on.

wonderful news looks like a good book
my favourite meal
salad vegables pasta with a tofu sauce lots of garlic and mushrooms
yummy

It passed 2 months since I started eating vegan and it's awesome...I've never felt better :)
Currently my fav recipe is peas burger and veggies, then griled tofu sandwiches...oh there is lots of them...and not forget to mention those extra delicious choco-cranberry muffins...yummy

I'm one of the recent vegans and I really enjoy it...so much combinations and all so tasty :)
Well what I like the best is all kind of soy burgers-I like to experiment with those a lot :) and as a dessert: choco muffins with cranberry filling

I love to eat blackbean burgers and soy burgers! They're my fav

I love cooking and particularly I love "veganizing" all the traditional recipes we have in Italy...But I think my masterpieces are homemade breads (bread is vegan by itself!) and all kind of cakes, cookies, muffins, cupcakes.... Yummy!

My favorite vegan meal to make at home is breakfast for dinner! Vegan pancakes, tempeh bacon and individual hash brown cups from "Vegan Brunch"!

I love just regular old hummus and pita bread! it's basically my staple food.

Lately my top 3 vegan foods have been:
Soy-sage gravy and biscuits, Grilled avocado sandwich, or banana bread.

This cookbook looks very handy.

I've been compiling a list of vegan comfort foods over the past few months, and the one that wins rave reviews from family and friends is, hands down, Rockin' Moroccan Stew from a cookbook called, Crazy Plates by sisters Janet and Greta Podleski. Perfect for winter and holiday vegan cooking!

Spaghetti olio, aglio, peperoncino; stuffed eggplants; lentil patties; minestrone. These are some of my favourite foods. Yes, I am italian....

I love a nice rattatoui (best when it's from my garden) on top of some mashed potatoes (with the skins and some Better than Cream Cheese and Earth Balance mashed in).

But the ultimate vegan recipe is the vegan chocolate chip coconut cookies with a banana for the egg replacer! It's from La Dolce Vegan! Mmmmmm!

My fav vegan recipe: I use the pulp that's generated from juicing carrots, celery & apples everyday to make carrot cake/muffins. Makes them rich, tasty & higher content fiber than usual.

Chilli for the winter. MMMmmmm

Uuhhmmm... So many great vegan recipes to choose between. But it must be a gourmet lasagne, that I like to make, which both my steady mum and dad loves. Even more than "regular" lasagne they've told me.

I actually had it this evening. YUM :)

Either udon soup in a miso base, or veggie beans and rice.

Cool cookbook!

Rice, dal (splitpea soup), spicy vegetable stews and chapaties (unleavened bread). A complete and delicious meal, and by varying the veggies and spices, one can eat every day for ever!

Oh, it's definitely got to be bavarian apple torte!

I love making vegan pizza with lots of artichokes and black olives!

I hope and pray I'll win this vegan book so that I can cook for my family and friends, and prove therefore to all of them that switching to vegan is the coolest thing that they can do for the animals, for the environment, for the world, and for their health as well.

I would LOVE to win this cookbook! My favorite vegan recipe is my homemade vegan coconut curry mock-chicken with basmati rice. I also make a pretty good vegan lasagna.

My wife just showed me this cookbook you're giving away - hope we can win it!

I'll have you know that she's not the only one who can cook in our family. I happen to make a mean tofu manicotti with fresh herbs, and everyone loves my garlic hummus.

Cheers!

A big, mission-style burrito. yum

chickpea burgers

I've been a carnivore for sixty some years. Had a stroke for my troubles 13 months ago. My LDL was nearly 500, triglycerides nearly 900 and HDL neglible.

One year follow-up: LDL 47; HDL 48; triglycerides 101; BP 120/62 yesterday (vs. 160/120 or more for decades).

I gave up statins because of side-effects. Gave up red meat and nearly all poultry four months ago, substituting tofu. Gave up all dairy, use soy milk.

Amazing results in only a few months time!

Haven't lost much weight, but have more energy, sleep better, more positive frame of mind, all wonderful outcomes.

I'm now learning how to become vegan, a logical evolution from a lifetime of abuse to my body, not to mention the cost to critters over the past six decades.

Problems: (1) learning how to cook tasty meals the vegan way and (2) no $ to spare, so the book would be a real contribution to me in my journey toward more healthy eating.

Parenthetically, I've been delighted to find that I can more easily afford vegetarian food on limited income.

All those benifits ...crazy not to go the whole mile.

Thanks, hope I win the book. If I get good at creating compelling dishes perhaps my bride will join me, as the benefits to her would even be greater as she is a paraplegic.

Recipe:
stir fry:
1 tblsp olive oil
minced garlic
snow peas
carrot, sliced
celery, 1 stem sliced
red onion, 1/3 sliced
sliced summer squash (1)
firm tofu
tomatoe, beefsteak (1)
(off my own vine)
add in brown rice,
& barley mix
(pre-cooked)
sprinkle sliced almonds
over the finished mess
Nothing terribly creative but what has changed my clogged old arteries into free-flowing pipes!

My wife won't eat it, thinks it's boring. Finding interesting, aesthetically attractive recipes might win her over, and it sure would make my diet more fun!
Dan
Thanks!

brown rice with an assortment of vegetables

I love any soup. Especially now as it gets colder!

I want to go vegan but don't know where to start. This cookbook would probably help!!!

Mexican Vegan tamales.. we only make them in the holidays but everyone, even my family who is not vegan looks forward to them....

I like good ole raw veggies with hummus and dips.

My favorite vegan recipe is to mix lentils with stir fried vegies and tofu, with a korean hot sauce on top..yum!!!

Last week I was missing the meaty spaghetti sauce I used to make; and since I can't eat soy protein, I tried a combination of finely chopped mushrooms, olives, and walnuts. It was just like the sauce I loved in texture and just as filling. It's definitely a favorite now.

I love a good bean, guacamole, and lettuce burrito with extra hot sauce. The best!!! Yum!!!

I would love to share a vegan dish I enjoy, however, I have yet to learn how to make any meals and still honor my desire to be cruelty-free to fellow species. I mean, even baking a cake leads me to using eggs which are harvested in an inhumane fashion and milk falls along the same line.
So for me, I need this recipe book to make living my desire a reality.

I absolutely live on the thai coconut milk soup recipe i found here! I make a huge batch of it almost every week and just heat up servings of it at a time. soo delicious!

I'm not much of a chef (at all!), but I really love the vegan carrot cake recipe. I have a very strong sweet tooth, and being able to make a healthy, animal-free dessert is awesome (and yummy)!

My favorite vegan recipe is called "apple cake" but it's actually more like a potato pancake in texture but not as crispy.

It's super easy too - wouldn't be surprised if there's a version in the cookbook!

All you do is mix shredded apple (I like it with granny smith apples), vegan margarine (I like Earth Balance), some cinnamon, maybe a little nutmeg, maybe a little allspice, water, sugar, and vegan flour. When you have a big ball of mush, you push it into a greased (margarine-d) glass pan and bake at 350 for about 40 minutes.

Absolutely delicious!

i cannot lie and say that i tried and loved any of these recipes. i want to win the book so that i can learn to make them and live a healthier life.

vegan "chicken" nuggetts!!

Two of my favorite recipes are my red bean and spinach burgers and my black bean burgers, One year I brought 20 of them to a picnic where it turned out I was the only vegetarain, I came home with 4 buergers everyone enjoyed them and some people asked for the recipes.

I would love this book. I am trying to become vegan and have no ideas for meals.

i like most baked goods but its hard to find a good Vegan recipe

My favourite thing to make is vegan artichoke spinach dip! It's the best! I love it and all my non-vegan friends love it as well! I hope I win.

My vegan recipe is carrot cake cupcakes!!!

I love vegan pasta e fagioli.

Hi - this book would be a great help to me! I took the plunge last month from newly vegetarian (3 months) to full-out vegan! I love it. I need recipes - simple as that. My husband is really ill and I have so far convinced him to try it - but I need LOTS of recipes to keep him interested. Thanks for offering this free item!!

hard to pick one fave, but guess i'll go with the pancake recipe from The Farm Vegetarian Cookbook. we usually doctor it up with hemp seeds, ground flaxseed, walnuts, and whatever other fruit/nut/jam/etc sounds yummy that day, and smother the cakes with maple syrup we make ourselves, with sap from local trees-- mmmmm...

Wow, hard to narrow THAT down. I'd say my favorite vegan dish might be callaloo soup--I use collards and sweet potatoes, served over grits.

grilled eggplants.. yum!!
or sweet potato fries..
I want this book!!

I like to make a yummy vegan casserole with tofu, steamed veg and sometimes a grain like brown rice. I make a sesame gravy to cover everything with and bake!

VEGAN COOKIES: whole wheat flour, organic oates, soy milk, cinnamon, honey or agava nectare, and carob chips. Optional is raisons and cranberries. Best cookies in the world!!!

my favorite vegan recipie to make is the frozen smoothie!
1 cup frozen blueberries
1 scoop vegetarian protien
1 cup of almond milk
(or soymilk)
1 banana

and splenda for sweetened effect (or sugar)

you can substitute pinapple juice, or strawberries too if u want!

There's a tempeh/peanut butter/ sun dried tomato pasta dish that my room mate discovered over the summer. I don't know if there's a name for it, but we make it all the time and we'll probably never get tired of eating it!

I've recently started to gain interest in the vegan lifestyle. The problem is trying to find great recipes to supplement out my meat meals. This book looks like a great resource!

I would love to win this book. I asked my family for a vegan cookbook for Christmas, and a got a vegetarian cookbook. Not a lot of people know the difference. Favorite vegan dish: Pasta with garlic and fresh herbs, especially basil.

I live off vegan shepards pie made with veggie ground round and mashed yams on top... so tasty!

My favorite recipe is vegan lasagna rolls. It's a quick and easy way to make a yummy, hearty meal, and easy way to add veggies in! I made my own recipes by adding together some others from a variety of recipe books. I would love to post the recipe, but it's on my blog.

Tofu Stir Fry ..

Marinate Extra-Firm Tofu (after draining completely) in spicy Teriyaki sauce with whole garlic cloves stuck in the tofu brick ~ let sit for a few hrs in fridge. Cut into cubes (or whatever way you like it) and toss in a Wok with green onions, Broccoli, minced/fresh pressed garlic and 2 handfuls of peanuts. Add black pepper/dried chili's to your taste!! - Serve over rice or noodles! YUM - xo

Eggplant casserole

eggplant lasagna

I love making stirfry with tons of veggies.

vegan blueberry cornbread

My daughter and I want to be vegan cooking experts!! So far we LOVE vegan chili especially this time of year!

I love making vegan pizza! It's fun to mix and match toppings: olives, eggplant, sundried tomato, spinach, mushrooms, roasted red peppers, broccoli, caramelized onions, pineapple . . . the possibilities are endless!

I am a vegetarian (for 3 years now), but I try to eat vegan as much as possible. I would LOVE this cookbook! I hope you pick me. :)
-Sara Marie

im 14 and my favorite lunch is a sandwich with sprouted 7 grain bread toasted lightly, with fresh mustard and corn syrup free ketchup and 6 pieces of tofurky separated by onions, dark lettuce, tomatoes sauerkraut. gahh its sooo good!

i cut it into 4 triangles and its amazing!

My favourite vegan recipe is Sloppy Fauxs! They use tofu and they're the greatest!

I don't really have a favorite because I'm a terrible cook. Hopefully, if I win this book, I'll get better at it :D

Vegan Chocolate Cake

just made a vegan pumpkin bread!

My favorite vegian recipe is Pastelon de yuca or mashed yucca filled with mash sweet plantain and cabbage. Chayote filled with mashed sweet plantain. Nice puertorican stile recipe!! let me know if you want to know it.

Finally! A big thick wonder book! I am jazzed about this and thankful!

Black Bean Burgers
1/2 onion diced
1/2 cup flour
1/2 tsp. seasoned salt
salt and pepper to taste
1 can black beans, drained
2 slices bread crumbled
1 tsp. onion powder
1 tsp. garlic
oil for frying

Saute onions til soft 3-5 minutes
in large bowl mash beans till almost smooth. Add onions and other ingredients except oil, adding flour only bits at a time to combine well. Mixture will be thick.
Form mix into patties, approximately 1/2 inch thick and fry in oil until slightly firm.

I'm not really much of a cook but I LOVE to bake!
I make anything from cookies, muffins, brownies, cakes, pies, icea cream, and much more! (of course, vegan!)
But of all, my favourite recipe is tiramisu!
The sweetness of the cream and bitterness of the cacao+coffee powder match perfectly, and it's soooooooo yummy!!!

My mother used to do an eggplant cake and I still cook it when friends are comming home. It's easy, quick and we all love it !!

Mine is a new one I just started making, it's a '2-minute noodle' style dish, with noodles, peas, corn, carrot, veg stock & parsley.
Extremely simple & quick for when I cannot be bothered cooking!

marinated tofu with soy sauce, minced ginger, hot chilli, lime juice and minced lime skin and extra virgin olive oil...then stir fried. delicious!!!!!!

I've got so many allergies that I've had to eat meat at times, but I try to get from the health food store, and I mostly eat fish and free range eggs. I'd love to be more of a vegetarian. I also have IBS so I have to be doubly careful. I'd love to win a recipe book like this.

I have been vegetarian for 5 years, and then I quot...after 10 years, I'm back!I took the Pledge for 30 days, and now I'm very happy to be "back on tracks"...The country where I live (Argentina) is famous for the meat, so it's quite difficult to find a lot of alternative products that I see on the recipes....but I believe that the number of veggies is increasing fast, and market will demand this product to meet their needs...Cheers!!

PB & J sandwich of course!!

:) :) :)

I grew up being criticised and teased ALOT because I didn't want to eat meat. At times my parents would force me to eat it so I never really learned how to cook vegan. I prefer veggies in as natural state as possible and I really am not good with tofu.
I have two simple, fun and delicious recipes to share- I do not use measurements because I use whatever I can get at my local fresh produce stand, and you can use as much or as little as you like!
VEGGIE FAJITAS:
jullienne veggies- yellow squash, zuchinni, red and green peppers, onion, and anything else that you like, simmer gently in a little bit of olive oil, add a little minced garlic and sprinkle a little chili powder. Veggies should still be slightly crisp- don't cook away all the goodness! Serve wrapped in a warm tortillia with simple salsa and dairy free sour cream! YUMMO!!!
SIMPLE SALSA:
Dice fresh tomatoes (Romas are great and usually less expensive), spring onions, jalapenios (as much or as little as you like!) a little lemon or lime juice, and a bunch of fresh cilantro, chopped somewhat finely.

The salsa is great served over tortillia chips with kidney beans, veggie shredded cheese and non dairy sour cream.
ENJOY!

I love tofu stir fry and chick'n taco salad with spinach leaves.

I love tofu stir fry and chick'n taco salad with spinach leaves.

My favorite recipie to make at home is "chicken" and dumplings. I use faux chicken and vegetable broth.

My favorite vegan recipe is red beans and rice. I love the creole spices. I usually do canned beans and brown rice but would love a "real" recipe...maybe in this book?

YUM! Vegan recipes in hard copy that don't involve scouring google for answers? This looks like an incredible cookbook.

Looks like such a fun book!

I absolutely love making Scrambled Tofu using Isa Moskowitz's recipe. I love the looks from my coworkers and children when they all comment how delicious it smells then curl their noses up when I tell them what it is! If it smells & looks delicious, then what's the problem I say right?

My favorite vegan recipe is anything I can assemble quickly, put in a crockpot and slow-cook for eight hours or so. After a long, hard day, I love to come home to the aroma of a savory, ready to eat vegan meal.

My favorite cookbook is one I inherited from my mother. It is not vegan but it is hilarious. The title is "The I Hate To Cook Book," and the author is Peg Bracken. I have both the edition that came out in the early 60's and the one that came out a few years ago. To paraphrase the author, this is the book you use when it's 5 p.m. and you are in the kitchen staring at the stove wondering what would be easy to put in front of your family for dinner.

This book sounds amazing! Would love to have it. My favorite recipe to make is vegan pad thai with lots of veggies! I LOVE peanuts and peanut butter so much!

I want this cookbook so badly! My go to book has always been Vegan Planet which is spilled on, torn and very well used. Her recipes are amazing always and this book would be sure to provide me with some great meals ahead. I love all vegan soups/stews/chilis I could live off them. My favorite recipe is my homemade bean and soyrizo chili. One of my old favorites from vegan planet is the farmhouse veg soup because you can use whatever you have on hand really. This book would give me so many great ideas!!

My favourite recipe is Pisto Manchego, it's a Spanish dish with peppers, onions, courgettes and tomato. Mmmmmm!

I love making a huge pot of tamarind lentils from Veganomicon and eating it all week. Yum!

My favorite vegan recipe is a tofu patty with sun-dried tomatoes, carrots, breadcrumbs, and a whole lot of other stuff :) the sun-dried tomatoes give it so much flavor. I just pour a little tomato sauce over the top and it's perfect.

My favorite vegan recipe, one I often make for carnivorous guests, is the African sweet potato peanut stew from Robin's earlier book, Vegan Planet. She's a great recipe writer!

My favourite recipe is really simple.
You will need pasta (I prefer green pasta with spinach), fresh pepers and tomato sauce.
Chop pepers and fry them until they are soft, add tomato sauce and stirr for a while. Mix with cooked pasta.
If you want to you can also add tofu or anything you like.

Just finished my plate of it.
Enjoy!

Garlic & Earth Balance mashed potatoes with nutritional yeast gravy..YUM.

my favorite vegan food has gotta be vegan burgers!!

There are so many so my favorite one is the fresh vegetables, pumpkin and dark green leafy veggies I feed my 100 rescued turtles and tortoises. Pick me! Pick me!

I need this more than anyone as I'm a bit of a useless cook!

Favourite to cook is stir fry veggies with tofu in lime and soy sauce. Mmmm..

My favorite vegan recipe is tofu scramble.

My favorite vegan meal to make at home is Biscuits and Gravy with Smoky Collard Greens!

I tend to use the recipe for sausage gravy from Yellow Rose Recipes, sometimes using chopped up Field Roast Sausage, sometimes making my own tempeh sausage crumbles from Vegan with a Vengeance.

I love the biscuit recipe from Joy of Vegan Baking!

And my favorite smoky collard greens recipe can be found here!

I want to win this book for my mom she is a vegen she likes to eat salads

My favorite recipe is dutch-oven roasted herb potatoes, they're really easy and come out really creamy!

My favorite would have to be vegan chocolate chip cookies, made with whole wheat pastry flour.

I have so many vegan recipes to make! But I'd have to say sloppy lentils and SW potpie, both from the book "Fresh From the Vegetarian Slow Cooker" top the list of my favorites!

Just one favorite recipe? That's so hard! So I will just go with the most recent delicious thing that I made: pureed sweet potato soup with barley. So yummy!

My favourite vegan recipe is one I got from the internet. Fresh basil, fresh coriender, fresh mint blended with sesame oil, chili, a touch of olive oil and then stirred through pasta and vegies. Sprinkle with peanuts. Absolutely delish. Peggy

i am fourteen and ive been vegan for almost a year now...i would LOVE to have some vegan recipes to try on my friends!

I love to make stuffed peppers :) especially when we are having a pasta dinner .. i will stuff big juicy red bell peppers with all the yummy colorful stuff like corn, black beans, carrot, garlic, rice, cilantro and always with lime juice.. yum the perfect partner for a rice noodle pasta with tofu and sundried tomatoes!

My fav is so easy - yellow curry w/ toful & broccoli. People don't realize how easy curry is to throw together (literally).

1 pack extra firm tofu
1 can coconut milk (you may be tempted to get light....but I don't suggest it lol).

From there I don't even measure. I just throw a ton of yellow curry powder until it's a nice, deep yellow. A dash of cumin, a dash of corainder and some ginger if I have it. Throw it together, simmer for about 1/2 hour - DONE! mmmmmmmm

My husband was diagnosed with prostate cancer, several years ago, we became vegans, and are both in great health. Really want to win this book, I love to prepare food, so new recipes will keep us happy & healthy!

Thank you, xo C

I love to make vegan pizza!Trying different combinations of vegan cheeze, toppings, crusts, etc. is great fun! Thank you for the contest!

Oh man I'd love this. My favorite vegan food to make is a stir fry made from top ramen noodles with onions, bell peppers, garlic, bamboo, fried tofu, and Mae Ploy's Sweet Chili Sauce and Sriracha sauce in it :D SO GOOD!!!

tofu ricotta stuffed shells!

Mmmm.. Vegan gravy.

2 tbsp margarine
1 onion, diced
2 tbsp flour
1 tsp garlic salt
2 tbsp cornstarch
1 1/2 cups vegetable broth
2 tbsp soy sauce

Preparation:

Heat the margarine over medium heat in a large skillet and sautee the onion for 2 minutes. Add the flour and garlic salt and sautee for 5 more minutes.
Add the vegetable broth and cornstarch, stirring to mix the cornstarch well. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer, stirring frequently to make sure no clumps are formed.

Add the nutritional yeast and soy sauce and reduce heat. Cook for one more minute, stirring.

My fave vegan recipe is peanut sesame noodles w/ peanuts sprinkled on top! Yum!

Vegan pumpkin chocolate chip cookies.
One of those great recipes you'd think would never work, but then, miraculously, it's the best you've ever tasted!

My favorite recipe is pea and potato curry (Isle of Wight Vegetarians and Vegans- 'Meals without Sqeals' (especially great for those of us with little culinary expertise and who like to experiment with 'whats in the cupboard'. Its also great cos its so adaptable to different tastes- can be as hot/spicy as you make it)

My favourite vegan recipe is leek soup. Just cook one leek, two potatoes and four carrots and mince them in a blender and add salt and pepper. Delicious!

My favorite--and the favorite of everyone we serve it to--is a golden vegetable-tofu Thai curry. Even omnivores ask me to make it again & again!
Not only is it healthy & tastes great, I feel "uplifted" and energized after eating it.

My favorite meal to make at home are hugh jass salads with a hearty topping of lentil dip. YUM!

I have only stopped eating animal products a couple months ago, but my favorite so far is Creamy Vegan Corn Chowder.

Return to pot and stir in salt and pepper.
Keep warm until ready to serve.

Trying to become Vegan. Just need help finding foods that are vegan considering i'm the most picky person around... i've been living off Ritz and potatos lately... HELP!

hi,
i am a vegetarian for 22 of my 37 years now.
since 3 weeks i am vegan, and it feels so good.
not only the taste of total animal free food, also and of course that is the first thing i think of always, knowing that i can help and be part of the big vegan world community which fights for the voiceless and the beaten, our animals. nothing is more important.
thank you so much and keep up the good work.

love grit from germany

ps: i love vegan libanese food. :)

My fav is garden salad mixed with mashed potato...I know sounds weird, but is tasty as!

My favorite recipe are my mother's Vegan Shortbread cookies.

They only take flour, olive oil, sugar and some vanilla extract. Super easy to make, they're done in twenty minutes from the very start to the end.

My favorite vegan recipe is ratatouille -- and if you toss all the ingredients in a slow cooker, dinner is ready when you get home from work/school!

I'm basically trying to figure out what a vegan lifestyle is all about.This cookbook will surely change my eating habits and replace it with meals that are animal-friendly and would ensure my longevity for years to come.Please send me this book! :)

My favorite recipe to make at home is nachos. I put down a layer of tortilla chips, a layer of refried beans, a layer of Morningstar crumbles(sometimes made with taco seasoning packets), a layer of hot sauce, and a thick layer of Follow Your Heart Mozzarella cheese. If my husband and I are reaaallyy hungry, I'll repeat all that and make a double batch. After I bake them, I top them off with a ton of tofutti sour cream. It's delicious and an great for company or just when I want to indulge on mass amounts of food. ;)

I love fajitas with "chicken" seitan and loads of peppers and onions!

Mix together a can of mini-diced tomatoes and a can of hot chili beans. Warm 'em up on the stove, or nuke 'm. Spoon out the mixture over a plate of any small, whole wheat pasta, or brown rice. Heat a can of collard greens for a side dish. Fast, easy, and filling.

My favorite vegan recipe is a salad with tomatoes.

I am a new Vegan so am just learning. I cant say I have a favorite recipe yet because it's only been 3 weeks! I would love this to help me learn tho. thanks sounds like a great cookbook

I don't have a favorite Vegan recipe because I'm not vegetarian. But my mom she's a BIG vegetarian and I know she would love this boook!!!

I love making scrambled tofu with toast.

My favorite vegan meal to make is pasta and vegetables with marinara sauce.

Woo for vegan cookbooks! :)

My husband and I both work full-time, so our food has to be quick and easy. Hence, my favorite "recipe" for vegan nachos: a plate of tortilla chips smothered with black beans and salsa. It's quick, easy, and oh-so-good! I eat this several times a week.

I went vegan not too long ago and have been slowly adapting my only-red-meat-please father to a more healthy lifestyle. For thanksgiving, we made vegan stuffing together :)

Ingredients:

* 14 slices bread, lightly toasted or pre-dried, chopped into cubes or crumbles
* 1 1/2 cups dried cranberries
* 2 1/2 cups apple juice
* 1 red onion, diced
* 2 stalks celery, diced
* 3 cloves garlic, minced
* 2 tbsp vegan margarine
* 1 tsp thyme
* 1/2 tsp sage
* 1 tbsp dried parsley (or 2 tbsp fresh, chopped)
* 1/4 tsp black pepper
* 1/2 tsp salt
* 1/4 tsp ginger
* 1/4 tsp cinnamon

Preparation:
Pre-heat over to 350 degrees.

In a small bowl, pour apple juice over cranberries and set aside.

In a large skillet, sautee the onion, celery and garlic in the vegan margarine until soft, 3-5 minutes. Add thyme, sage and parsley and sautee for one more minute.

In a large bowl, combine bread, onions and celery, and cranberries and apple juice, stirring to combine well.

Bake for 20-25 minutes. Add additional spices, if desired, and enjoy!

Hi there..Love vegetables of all sorts my favourites being white asparagus and hollandaise sauce and streamed beet greens or spinach...and good old home made mac and cheese for more hardier fare..with so many good recipes like the red beans and rice I am trying tomorrow who needs to eat another animal...not me..Good luck to all who enter and happy cooking!!

i bake vegan strawberry cupcakes for every friend's birthday.

My favourite vegan recipe (so far, as I'm a new vegetarian!) is vegetable masala, with masala mix bought at a Fair Trade store I volunteer at. The first vegan meal I cooked for myself & my family, and everyone loved it!

i LOVE any kind of vegetarian soup ^.^

vanilla tofu with Reese's cups blended into a smoothie

Probably vegan cupcakes.

This sounds like an amazing cookbook!

This looks like a great book! It would be an awesome addition to my newly started vegan cookbook collection!

i LOVE making meatless ground-beef style tacos in corn tortillas fried in vegi oil. Such a decadent treat!

I love making my own amazing vegan stacks with homemade pesto, facon, grilled eggplant, roasted capsicum, spinach, vegan mayo, portobello mushroom, etc

I think Lentil and Brown Rice Stuffed Green Peppers with a Marinara is excellent autumn fare. Add an old movie and I'll bring the wine.

A simple cucumber sammie! Sliced cucumbers with sea salt in a vegan pita covered with hummus inside...yummy!!!

Maybe a little basic, but my absolute favorite recipe is for miso soup, with lots of mushrooms and tofu in it. I seriously could eat miso soup every day.

I also love the chickpea-hijiki sandwiches from Vegan with a Vengeance. So yummy, sometimes I just skip the bread and eat it by the spoonful.

Vegan Pancakes with fruit and some awesome maple syrup! I think I could eat them everyday

One of my favorite vegan recipes I got off the internet--Portabello Wellington. It's Portabello mushroom caps stuffed with leeks, various mushroom varieties, onions and garlic with a puff pastry shell on top. After eating this, Seitan Stroganoff fell to the #2 spot :)

My favorite vegan recipe is a tofu stir fry!

Yes, I really like Robin's website and visit it often. I would love this book! Thanks for the contest.

My favorite recipe to make is Vegan Pumpkin Chili.

My favorite easy dish to make at home are the Quesoless Quesadillas from The Vegan Table with a side of roasted veggie couscous. It's ridiculously easy to make and delicious!

You're making me pick just one? With all the raw vegan cupcakes I've been making lately (I love "rawifying" the ones from "Vegan Cupcakes take Over The World"), I'd have to select one of them at the moment. I love my Rawtess ones (similar to the Fauxtess, vegan Hostess ones). They are made from nut "flour," cocoa powder, dates, agave, coconut milk, etc. They are so good!

I'd love to get my hands on this book to start rawifying these recipes. I could post my results on my site or send them your way.

Took the pledge to not eat meat for one month, I am doing very well it has been almost 3 weeks with no meat and im loving it! Trying to talk my family and friends into trying it as well! I have decided that even eating/drinking dariy isnt the right choice for me anymore, But i have no idea what all i can make! my meals have been very simple items, I need more ideas!

My favorite is Vegan Chili. I can add so many great ingrediants!

I have a great love for asian cuisine, so I'd have to say my favorite recipe is tofu, snap peas, edamame,red pepper, onion, and water chestnuts sauteed in soy sauce and minced garlic served over white rice. Yum

I literally became a vegan YESTERDAY! I decided it was the best for me and the PETA pamphlet about becoming Vegan or Vegetarian where it describes the torture animals are put through just to make food - brought me to TEARS. Yesterday I made the banana muffins that i found on the website and they were great, it definitely is making this easier for me! I am so glad I made this change and I would LOVE to win this book!

My favorite recipes are the ones that are "incidentally" vegan, so I really love to make ratataouille! Or a new twist, ratatouille pizza.

i made vegan brownies with black beans once, and they were delicious! even my dad ate one (and enjoyed it) and he HATES beans!!

i'd love to learn new vegan recipes from this cookbook!

My favorite vegan recipe is definitely tofu stirfry :-)

I have so many fave recipes that I like to cook. I will have to choose my recipe for vegan lasagna as it is quick and easy to make and low cost!

I love anything with quinoa in it.

One of my all-time favorite vegan recipes to make is vegan Mexican Chocolate Cake!

One of my all-time favorite vegan recipes to make is vegan Mexican Chocolate Cake!

My favorite recipe to make at home is Vegan Pho. Pho, is a traditional dish from Vietnam and I used to absolutely love it. Since turning vegan, I've been testing different homemade broths that taste like how I remembered my mom's pho. I think I've finally, after all these years, found the perfect matches. Now I make this nearly every month from scratch! It's like being at home again, except, one that loves animals and would never consume their flesh!

My favorite vegan recipe is vegan chocolate brownies (recipe from The Joy of Vegan Baking)

MMMMMMMM I LOVE THIS!!!!!

I NEED THIS BOOK TO SURVIVE!!!!!!!!!!

i have ben a vegan for almost a year now and thanks to so many concious chefs putting out so much info to help me cook, i dont think im missing a thing.. thank u everybody

There are so many good vegan recipes it is almost impossible to choose only one! One of my most favorite dishes is pea sprouts sauteed with vegetable oil with nutmeg ginger and spices of choice. Throw in some tofu for additional flavor!

My favourite vegan receipe is from Robin's book Vegan Planet--Pumpkin Pie Pancakes. They taste as good as they sound and it's great to get some veggies in at breakfast!

A mushroom pasta recipe that I vegaized from Cooks Illustrated. Yum!

I cook for my vegan daughter and her favorite is my hearty vegan soup with lentils. I also make a mean black bean soup that even the none vegans in my house love!

My favorite vegan recipe is Snobby Joes. It's a sloppy joe recipe modification made with lentils. YUMMY

soba noodles with kale and ginger...yummmm

we love portobello mushrooms stuffed with black beans and sesame from the "carb conscious vegetarian" by Robin Robertson.

Texas Caviar
Delicious! Beans, corn, cilantro, salsa, etc.

Looks good! My favorite recipie is asian-inspired stirfries.

too tough to decide on a favorite. right now, my favorite thing to do is bake vegan goodies with my kids, they love to bake with mom and it helps to show them they can have the "goodies" their friends have without harming animals.

I still turn to the Compassionate Cookbook on the rare occasions I do the cooking, but my favorite homemade-by-hubby vegan dinner is grilled veggies & bean burritos with veggie rice or roasted corn on the cob. My husband also makes an awesome seitan pot pie for holidays.

My favorite is a spicy Southwestern vegan Shepard's pie! With a spicy lentil-loaf crust, a salsa filling with corn, and spicy seasoned mashed potatoes!

Hi! when I'm home for lunch I like to make a blender full of hummus soup- it started out as hummus, but as I got cheaper and lazier it became less about tahini and more about spices and tomato. Now it's a delicious, almost raw veggie soup. My favorite!

I'm transitioning to a vegan diet. Since I was two, it always felt wrong to me to eat animals so I never ate much of it, without completely ruling it out of my diet, until recently when it suddenly became clear that was not going to eat anymore meat, dairies or eggs, and so far, it feels so great! But as a mother of two I need to make meals that everyone in my family will enjoy and I feel that this book would help me achieving that goal.

I'm on a money and time budget, so my favorite vegan recipe follows: Frozen vegetables (any kind or multiple kinds), rice (any kind or multiple kinds) and a dollop of hummus (any kind or multiple kinds).

My fav:
1/4 cup Blackeyed Peas
1/4 cup Corn
1/4 cup of Long Grain Black Rice
Dollop of Trader Joe's Mediterranean Hummus

I love this recipe because it is so easy to make variations. I even love omitting the rice and putting the other ingredients on toasted bread, then slice diagonally and eat like a sandwich. Have a fork ready to eat the pieces that fall out of the sandwich.

I'd love to begin experimenting with recipes from this cookbook! I'm finally ready to make the leap to the Vegan Cookbook!

Thanks for giving me the opportunity to win!

ooh that looks really good!!hope i win!

I have now been a Vegan for 2 months and totally love it. My whole attitude to food has changed, and the delicious variety of menus we have been enjoying is fantastic. My favourite meal is curried rice and vegies followed by fruit salad.
I'd really love some new recipes to try.

I like all sorts of food but my favorite lunch is a curried red lentil soup that contains chopped greens (usually kale). My favorite dinner is stir-fried veggies with brown rice, and the combination varies according to what is in the refrigerator.

I'm just starting on my journey, so I don't really have recipes to share, but I've made a simple mixture of brown rice with a variety of veggies and pineapple that is yummy :)

My favorite vegan recipe is from Alissa Cohen's Living on Raw Food - Berries and Cream. We eat it nearly every morning for breakfast.

Right now the only "vegan" recipe I is pasta.

I am trying to get my family turned onto a more vegatarian lifestyle & could use all the help I could get!

I'm always looking for new creative ideas. This looks fantastic - Thank you!

I generally make spontaneous meals out of whatever's in the kitchen, but occasionally I use a recipe. I think the recipe out of my vegan recipe box that has the most wear is Pad Thai. Or my husband's "Perfect Vegan Pancakes".
It would be an honor to own this cookbook.
Thanks,
Elizabeth Starr Lilly

I love bean burritos.

My favorite veggie meal is Lentil Soup made with onions and shredded carrots.

Red lentil stew with carrots, garlic & Japanese eggplant.

My absolute favorite recipe to make at home is Susan V's pumpkin and black bean casserole:

My fav. vegan recipes are anything out of "Vegan Cupcakes Take Over The World"- I've made each of them over the course of a year and they are all extremely yummy!
