Fresh from the Vegan Slow Cooker: 200 Ultra-Convenient, Super-Tasty, Completely Animal-Free Recipes

Fresh from the Vegan Slow Cooker: 200 Ultra-Convenient, Super-Tasty, Completely Animal-Free Recipes
Product Description

Robin Robertson has built a publishing record of successful books in the vegetarian/vegan category. Her earlier cookbook, Fresh from the Vegetarian Slow-Cooker, established her bona fides as an expert on the creative use of slow-cookers, and her entire body of work speaks to her ingenuity in the kitchen and the breadth of enticing ingredients and flavors with which she works. Fresh from the Vegan Slow-Cooker provides practical guidence on how to work with different models of slow-cookers, taking into account the sizes of various machines, the variety of settings they offer, and the quirks and personalities of each device. She addresses any lingering skepticism readers may have about whether slow-cookers can have delicious, meat-free applications, and she shows how to take into account the water content of vegetables and the absorptive qualities of grains when vegan slow-cooking.
 
Fresh from the Vegan Slow-Cooker  includes eleven recipe chapters, four of which focus on main courses. There are homey and comforting foods in the American and European style, such as a Rustic Pot Pie Topped with Chive Biscuits and a Ziti with Mushroom and Bell Pepper Ragu, and there are lots of East Asian, South and Southeast Asian, and Mexican/Latin dishes, too.  Beans, which cook slowly under any circumstance, are fabulously well-suited to the slow cooker, and Robertson includes such appealing recipes as a Crockery Cassoulet and a Greek-Style Beans with Tomatoes and Spinach. Eighteen robust chilis and stews—two more categories that do well in the slow-cooker—include a warming Chipotle Black Bean Chili with Winter Squash and a surprising but yummy Seitan Stroganoff.  Beyond the mains, there are chapters devoted to snacks and appetizers, desserts, breads and breakfasts, and even one on drinks.  The many soy-free and gluten-free recipes are clearly identified.  Altogether, the collection offers readers loads of ways to expand their vegan repertoire and to get maximum value from their investment in a slow-cooker.

What are your favorite vegan cookbooks?

Sunday, November 18th, 2012

i’ve been a vegetarian for two years and i recently decided to become a vegan, and i was wondering what are some of your favorite vegan cookbooks?

My absolute, number one, hands down favorite is "Veganomicon" by Isa Chandra Moskowitz and Terry Hope Romero. If you’re in the market for one vegan cookbook, start here.

Isa’s first book "Vegan with a Vengeance" is also really great and is the book that convinced me that vegan was going to be entirely doable and that I wouldn’t be missing out on good food.

Others I like a lot include "Yellow Rose Recipes" by Joanna Vaught and "Vegan Fire & Spice" by Robin Robertson. Any of the Sarah Kramer books are good to have as well; some have recipes for homemade household cleaners and personal care products, too.

What is a good cookbook that uses only fruits and vegetables in its recipes?

Friday, November 16th, 2012

(I am looking for one that does not use carbohydrates – bread, rice, etc. – and one that uses little to no meat. It can be a vegetarian cookbook, a vegan cookbook, a raw food cookbook, a diabetic cookbook, a diet cookbook, or a standard cookbook. I am, however, looking for one that does not require expensive equipment such as a dehydrator.)

I would go with this one:
Five-a-Day Fruit & Vegetable Cookbook

http://www.amazon.com/Five-Day-Fruit-Vegetable-Cookbook/dp/0754813223

This one is a vegan cookbook by the Jazzy Vegetarian…..which I don’t really care for as I like my whole milk, cream and butter.

Any recommendations for a Vegan Cookbook that is EASY to use?

Tuesday, September 18th, 2012

For example, I don’t want to go to a bunch of specialty stores to grocery shop. Mexican is ok. Asian food is not, I need low sodium.

"Appetite for Reduction" by Isa Chandra Moskowitz. All recipes are meant to be quick and the food is delicious. There are only a few specialty things and they are fun to make. It’s what helped me switch to vegan and vegan cooking.
