- My favourite recipe book!
I adore this book!
It's worth it for the baking recipes alone - as a wheat-free vegan, I never get to eat cake or biscuits! However, I've made some of these baking recipes with wheat-free flour and they've turned out beautifully. Even my die-hard meat-eating friends and colleagues look forward to the chocolate chip cookies from this book when I make them.
My one criticism is that some of the ingredients can be difficult to source in the UK. Also I cannot get on with tempeh, which does feature very strongly in this book.
However, there are no salad recipes at all which I think is great - who needs a recipe for salad?!

- fantastic vegan cookbook
This book is fabulous. Being a recently converted veggie to vegan due to my son's allergies I was struggling a bit, particularly with cakes and puddings. but WOW! the recipes in here are just superb.
the pancakes were to die for, I don't think I'll ever go back to the regular version. the macadamia blondies went within 24hrs of being made and the whole family has enjoyed "fronch" toast and so many of the other scrummy recipes in here.
I would definitely recommend this to anyone wanting easy to make, tasty vegan food.

Vegan with a Vengeance: Over 150 Delicious, Cheap, Animal-free Recipes
This is a really great book. I'm not a vegan but love vegan cooking and baking and these recipes really stand up to the test, especially if you're looking for something a bit different! Not really your standard vegan book, and was a tad daunted by some of the ingredients first but once you buy the basics it's great.
Rating: - Great book
I found this book excellent.
There are a large variety of recipes - salads, curries - and yes also waffles and pancakes . What's really nice is that the author conveys the idea that vegan cooking can also be pleasurable and decadent rather than just ordinary or earnest. This book is great to compliment the hard core raw and vegan books on the shelf. It also appeals to veggies and meat eaters. I also loved the fact that there were no pictures too...
As a trainee psychotherapist I could find the comments from the cat slightly irratating, ibid.,the punk points and the politics of hairy legged women, but it is also a strength of the book which is also a sort of autobiography told through food.
Rating: - Best vegan cookbook I own
I got this book (US version) a year and a half ago as a new vegan and it's never let me down. There are recipes in it to impress vegans and meat-eaters alike and it's incredibly refreshing to own a vegan cookbook that packs the punches and isn't all about nut loaves and pasta salad. The mango ginger tofu is incredible, I'll make a batch to last me through the week and never get sick of it and the Big, Gigantoid Crunchy Peanut-Butter Oatmeal cookies are the most delicious cookies I've ever made - I bake them as gifts for people and everyone says how amazing they are!
The bottom line is that this book has a huge amount of very creative dishes, some are a little labour intense but most you can make for week day meals. I've not once regretted buying it and mine is now looking a little dog-eared and food splattered as a result.
