Non Vegan Tries Vegan Cookbooks

[@BeckieArt]

I'm vegan and have the Oh She Glows book. It's a beautiful book and full of yummy things!

[@SparklesBooks]

It's so good, I'm using the other book 'Keep it Vegan' as we speak, I love these books :)

[@ashleyburks4639]

Lovely review. The main 2 I will give a go are the 2nd & 3rd you mentioned. 'Oh she glows' + 'Keep It Vegan'.

[@sunnyblueskies6505]

I have a TON of vegan/plant-based cookbooks. Just yesterday I picked up three - “Isa Does It”, by Isa Chandra Moskowitz; “America’s Test Kitchen - Vegan for Everybody”, and “But I Could Never Go Vegan!” by Kristy Turner. There’s so many choice nowadays.

[@SparklesBooks]

I’ve got Isa Does It too and it’s a really good cookbook, recipes are delicious 😋

[@amberdubrutz5735]

Have you tried The Kind Diet by Alicia Silverstone?

[@lisalantrip7509]

I am a vegetarian and try to eat vegan for most meals. A vegan cookbook that is one of my go-to's is the Mediterranean Vegan Kitchen. It has a lot of healthy vegan recipes. It is one of my top favorite cookbooks!

[@SparklesBooks]

Oooh I'll look that up thank you :)

[@raissaferreira1101]

Vegan has nothing to do with eating clean, vegan is about animal rights...But plant-based is supposed to be a way of eating minimally processed food, like the Oh She Glows book you mentioned. It's important when reviewing a cook to understand the premise and goals behind its creating in order to give a relevant review.

[@SparklesBooks]

I disagree, I think people are vegan sometimes for health reasons too, also, plant based is about eating more food derived from plants and isn’t just about trying to cut out minimally processed food but also means that you don’t incorporate the full vegan lifestyle such as still partaking in activities like horse riding for example.

I'm not much into vegan type meals but I might give these a try thanks to your video.

[@SparklesBooks]

You definitely should, like I say, you could always add to them and use them as side dishes :)

[@MetalGearChief]

Looking at my dinner right now i would definitely agree. I like your reviews btw :)

[@SparklesBooks]

Thank you :)

I have seen the ratings for the thug kitchen cookbook, and a part of me wonder if the ratings are good simply because the language. it is literally the only thing keeping me from trying that cookbook. however I don't think I am missing out on anything, since there are plenty of other vegan cookbook that are good. I am anxiously awaiting my copy of the minimalist Baker cookbook.

[@SparklesBooks]

The swearing definitely isn't a pull for me, I feel like the book could do without it, but I do really love the recipes :)

[@haroldbruce3536]

I really like the fact that you were not put off by the colourful phraseology of the Thug Kitchen cookbook. I am going to purchase it and have fun with it. I am a vegan and my wife is always trying to come up with vegan dishes for me. She will get a kick out of this book. Thank you for your openness. Harold B.

[@SparklesBooks]

It's a really good book, definitely worth a look.

OUR FAMILY LOVES "CHLOE'S KITCHEN" AND "OH SHE GLOWES" ! I do not understand what are you talking about Chloe's additives ! Her meals are simple and delish! the only thing with her deserts is that she is using too much sugar ! BUT HER BOOK IS AMAZING !Her soups, burgers, salads, pestos, artichoke-walnut pesto crostini, avocado-shiitake sushi, warm spinach-artichoke dip, mango masala panini, minted couscous with arugla, butternut squash and currants !!!! AND MANY MANY MORE ! DELISH

[@SparklesBooks]

I suppose it’s down to personal preference, I’m not a fan of Chloe’s recipes but I know a lot of people are ☺️

Thank you for this review!

I've been pescatarian for 7 years and finally vegetarian for past 2.5. I used to love fish and I still do (smell of it) but managed to find my way without it, for fishes sake :-) I like your book reviews and your taste in books so I'm going to give it a go and buy Thug Kitchen. I'm not a great cook, I cook mostly for myself only therefore usually I can not be asked to cook a meal for one even if cooking few portions for the next 2-3 days. I usually have smoothies for lunch and oven meals for dinner 😳 Great video as always. Thanks Rosy X

[@SparklesBooks]

I'm aiming for vegetarian in the future :) don't think I can ever go fully vegan though, I have free range hens and they make lovely eggs

[@joannak5906]

+SparklesBooks Hi Rosy! Me neither. I would be able to function without extra mature cheddar 😭

[@SparklesBooks]

+Joanna K I'm like that with blue cheese haha

[@mariemaier5630]

Have you tried any more vegan cookbooks since you made this video?

[@SparklesBooks]

I have tried a lot of them now, they’ve become a staple in my cooking.

[@LeMondedeCarla04]

@@SparklesBooks Hi, I was wondering what were tour favorites as of today?

[@SparklesBooks]

@@LeMondedeCarla04 hello, I think I’d have to say ‘Isa Does It’ or ‘Thug Kitchen’ 👌🏻

[@LeMondedeCarla04]

@@SparklesBooks thank you so much for your quick reply :))

[@isheizzy1266]

You should most definitely try the happy pear cook book

[@SparklesBooks]

Ooh that sounds interesting I'll look it up on amazon or Book Depository :)

[@isheizzy1266]

SparklesBooks yes do! It is my favourite cook book

[@i123456987654]

i'm buying all of these vegan cookbooks

[@coreybellfaust5292]

Thanks for this! good review.. Gonna try some.. :)

[@SparklesBooks]

Corey Bellfaust I hope you like them :)

[@missdragonluckychina2449]

I have two of the chloe costerelli cook books( the Italian cooking one and the one all about deserts).. I also have the book called ( the good earth) by jon gregerson . and (the sweet vegan) by Emily mainquist. and (sinfull vegan) by lois dieterly. and (everyday happy herbivore) by lindsays.nixon. I found her recipes made the food t\state bland and dry and a lot of them didn't turn out the way she said they would and the recipes were not as big as she said the amounts of the sizing were wrong. also (150 best vegan muffin recipes) by Camilla v saulsbury.so I have been making my own recipes. lately.

[@SparklesBooks]

I've not tried any of the others but I really wasn't impressed by Chloe Costerelli at all, I made several dishes from the book and not one of them turned out well.

[@hakeemshabazz3207]

miss dragon lucky china Wow, you're the second person today that said Happy Herbivore is bland! Interesting...🤔🤔 Will add more seasonings, ty.🖒😄

[@7peacefrog]

I love your video, because I am trying to go Vegan and I like that you are trying to be (politically correct), and I am with you in I have try some Vegan cookbooks that others say are the best, and I found them to hard and that does make you want to say (why bother) and that's not what I am looking for I have Keep it Vegan, and have been looking into an Oh She Glows cookbook Thank you and great job!

[@SparklesBooks]

7peacefrog thank you so much for your comment, I think it can be hit and miss with vegan cookbooks but I really love the ones I have :)

[@sarahdee374]

Sorry some of us vegans have made you feel the need to be so particular about what you say. I'm just glad you're willing to give 'em a try and share your thoughts.

[@SparklesBooks]

Don’t be sorry, I’m happy to learn and I’d hate to cause any offence but I’m pleased you appreciated the video for what it was supposed to be 😊
