Product Description
In Vegan with a Vengeance, Isa Chandra Moskowitz, host of the community access vegan cooking show The Post Punk Kitchen, brings the do-it-yourself, community-driven ethos of punk rock into the kitchen. Her cooking philosophy embraces being kind to animals (all recipes are completely animal-product free) and your wallet—while being creative and having fun in the process. She emphasizes staying clear of corporate brand-name foods, and says that cooking should be an innovative, experimental, and completely real experience. This one-of-a-kind cookbook offers 125 recipes for all meals of the day, from stuffed mushrooms to tofu pizza, gingerbread cupcakes to pasta with "alfreda sauce," and is full of tips and tricks on how to keep your diet vegan, inexpensive, and liberated.

5 out of 5 stars Just another 5 star review - I agree with the masses!   October 10, 2008
VWAV Review - October 10, 2008

There are over 150 recipes in this book - so I didn't want to leave a review until I had tried a substantial amount of them. Of the recipes I've tried I liked all but one. I think that's pretty good for a cook book! And I've tried a lot - I purchased this book in August it's been 2 months and I've tried twenty recipes so far. The only one I did not like was the Crispy Peanut Butter Cookies on page 200. It sucked big time - too crispy - so much that they fell apart. The taste wasn't that good either. But I have written many more positive reviews for each recipe on my personal blog - and I'm quite impressed with this book overall. I love it, in fact! I've tried recipes from all of the categories in the book - but my favorite recipes come from the Dessert and Muffins and Scone sections. If they were to do a second edition of this book - my only recommendation would be to add the Celcius cooking amount in recipes because it's annoying to have to look that up all the time. I can say that I really like the way the book is set up - with the Contents in the front listing all of the recipes and where to find them... and also an Index in the back. That is helpful because when you really like a recipe - it makes it easier to find it. And I also liked that just about any ingredient can be found in any grocery store - b/c I've seen other cookbooks in the Vegan category that list very certain name brand items - and that's okay if you live in Greater Seattle or something - but over in other countries it can be hell to find something even similar. So I give great praise for this book - I recommend it over Dreena Burtons books for many of the reasons stated above. Thanks Isa for such a great book.



5 out of 5 stars My favorite cookbook   October 5, 2008

NOT just my favorite vegan cookbook, but my favorite cookbook EVER. I got this book a few weeks ago and I'm hooked. I had been in a cooking slump for a while, and this book has inspired me. Pretty much everything I've made has been phenomenal (ok, I'll admit the tempeh bacon didn't quite turn out, but I'm not ruling out the possibility that I did something horribly wrong!) The book is well-written, entertaining and funny. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!


4 out of 5 stars Isa's awesome!   September 28, 2008

I just added this to my collection- so far, so good! Aside from the fantastic recipes, Isa's personality comes through and enhances the whole experience with her funny commentaries! As usual, she comes through as one of the best I've found in all my years as a happy vegan.


5 out of 5 stars Super!   September 22, 2008

Great recipes, easy to understand and follow! Love it and use it several times a week. I have a handful of vegetarian/vegan cookbooks I swear by and this is now officially on the top of my list of those. Hurray for Vegan with a Vengeance! Shut up and just buy it.


5 out of 5 stars Best Cookbook Ever   September 8, 2008

This cookbook is a must have for anyone interested in a vegan diet. The recipes are simple, there are no salads, and no fake meat products. It is practical and every recipe I have tried is delicious! No ridiculous weird ingredients, everything can be found in your local grocery store. Buy this cookbook!
