Big Vegan is the book I want to give to those asking questions about vegan nutrition and what to cook! It answers all the most asked questions in such a clear way and then escorts the reader right into exciting and easy recipes. This is a truly valuable addition to the book shelf."
—Linda Long, author and photographer, Great Chefs Cook Vegan.

This paperback has the counter appeal and substance of a hardcover book. The chef-author's emphasis is on balancing sweet, salty, bitter, sour and umami.
— Bonnie S. Benwick, The Washington Post

Gorgeous, inviting, and amazingly well thought out, Big Vegan is a resource you'll be cooking from for years to come.
