Here is what people are saying:
Lisa Dawn Angerame has a knack for creating vegan recipes that seamlessly evoke the favorite dishes we know and love from growing up, from po’ boys to bolognese, french toast to mac n’ cheese. She creatively reimagines these classics with plant-based ingredients while retaining a sense of respect for their identity and the cherished place that they’ve earned in our memories and those of our families. This book will give the new vegan tools for making a transition without sacrificing comfort, tradition, or taste.

Traditional meat and dairy recipes have been documented and elaborated upon for decades now, and though sometimes there is a new twist on an old process, there is not much new to learn about Western nations’ meat and dairy dishes. These days, however, there are many more vegans amongst us, finding new ingredients and new techniques in the search to recover old favorite recipes in a new vegan format, or to create new dishes altogether, and what a pleasure to find that so many such cooks exist! Lisa Dawn Angerame is one of these explorers. She was quite sure she could ‘veganize’ all her old favorites, and this volume is proof that her efforts are successful. Cook well and enjoy!
