Chef Charity's plant-based food is JUST SO MUCH BETTER than everyone else's!
Several years ago I tried some of Chef Charity's foods from her website and I was blown away. I mean, her food is JUST LITERALLY SO MUCH BETTER than everyone else's plant-based recipes. There are so many out there that are just flavorless and dull, I mean, they're "just ok", but they're missing that pop and twang. Her food is completely different. It has so much deep rich flavor and spice that I emailed Chef Charity out of the blue and asked her when she was going to release a cookbook! She told me it was in the works and to stay tuned! When I saw it come out on her mailing list I was like, PRE-ORDER, BABY! I have been beyond pleased with this cookbook. It is huge and thick and has a ton of ideas, many of which are Creole and Latin-influenced. We have made a recipe a week out of it for awhile and we have loved it. The bae-con was one of our faves! I love how veggies are worked into everything, like even 'plain' things like grits have sweet potatoes in them!The pictures are gorgeous, entertaining, and mouth-watering, and the recipes are complex but they do not disappoint. Once you get your kitchen together with all of her homemade spice mixes and pre-make some things, you will have what you need to make a bunch of the stuff. As with all delicious food, ya can't rush it and you will be pleased with the outcome. If you're looking for a quick short ingredient cookbook, this isn't for you. But if you are looking for FLAVOR FLAVOR FLAVOR in a plant-based menu, you have come to the right place.For the next iteration, I'd love to see more substitution suggestions if one can't find some of the more hard-to-find ingredients like fresh shiitake mushrooms and maybe some gluten free substitution ideas in some of the recipes, since we deal with a celiac challenge in our family. She has done an amazing job overall though, so please don't take that as a criticism!Thanks Charity for this winner of a book!

Fantastic recipes
Had this book less than a week but have done several recipes already. The banana chocolate chip bread went down a treat in both my and my parents house! Did the tofu hollandaise muffins yesterday for breakfast, really yummy. My favourite has got to be the lobzster vodka pasta, bursting with flavour! Being in the UK I've been having to convert the ingredients from cup measures, etc. The soy curls are soy Chunks which I found on amazon. Confectionery sugar is icing sugar. I just used a mixed box of mushrooms in the pasta dish as in the UK we don't have lobster mushrooms, well I certainly couldn't find them if they are but it was devine! The book is rather like a bible for many things as it shows you how to do various sauces and stocks etc, too. I'm looking forward to trying more!

Great cookbook, but be careful
Received the book a few days ago, have already tried a couple of them, and you're right, Charity. They are amazing. So versatile, wanted to try everything. However, as I said, be careful. By that I mean there are a lot of items most of us don't have in our pantry, and if you're on S.S. as I am, they will cost a dent in your food budget, as it is mine. But Charity hit it right on the button, slow and easy, buy an item or two (or as many as you can afford) at a time. Do not let it be a deterrent, just work with what you have. Charity has given us a superb cookbook, try her recipes, you'll be hooked, I guarantee. Thanks, Charity.
