    But I Could Never Go Vegan!

    July 23, 2014 by keepinitkind 39 Comments

    Remember way back when I told you I was working on a cookbook? Well, now I'm ready to tell you a little more about it!

    But I Could Never Go Vegan!

    (this is just the working cover- a couple details may change)

    It's called But I Could Never Go Vegan! 125 Recipes That Prove You Can Live Without Cheese, It’s Not All Rabbit Food, and Your Friends Will Still Come Over for Dinner. I've written this book for all of the new vegans, almost vegans, wavering vegetarians, and veg-curious omnivores out there but even the most seasoned of vegans will enjoy it. Every chapter is an excuse someone might give (some are excuses I made before I went vegan) as to why they could never go vegan and is filled with recipes to refute that excuse. Think you can't give up cheese? I got you covered. You need protein? I have some plant-based protein-filled recipes just perfect for you. You'll miss pizza? Think again!

    I've just finished the second round of edits and we have just one more round of edits and perhaps a few photo reshoots to do before it can go to press and be released in January 2015!

    I've created a page which gives you more details about it  (all from my publisher), shares a few photos, and points you to where you can pre-order it. Thank you so much for all of your support- I wouldn't be here, seeing my dreams come true, if it weren't for each and every one of you! I can't wait for you all to see it!

    On another note- I wanted to give you a head's up on some other things I'm working on. A lot of you have been asking about the Photography Resources section of our Resources page and I wanted to let you know that Chris and I are still hoping to get it up and running soon. With Chris working full time, it's challenging to get it done in addition to running our normal blog posts but we haven't forgotten about it! We'll have it for you soon!

      Congratulations! That is so exciting - seeing the front cover in colour, with Isa's reccomendation right there! The title and format of the book is awesome - quite possibly one of the best titles ever! It speaks to your wit, humour, writing style, as well as the recipes that you included in the cookbook: all familiar favourites kicked up a knotch (or two) and in my personal opinion better than the originals!

      A job well done! What a year 2015 will be. I cannot wait to sample more recipes from the book once it arrives!

      Congrats again on your amazing accomplishment!

      Congratulations! I can't wait to see it. I'm one of those "nearly vegan" and looking to go all the way, but I still have an issue giving up cheese. Can't wait to see what's in your book!

      Wow, this is the most perfect timing! I've been getting more and more curious about a vegan diet - (almost) all the blogs I follow are vegan-based blogs, because I love the creativity of vegan recipes, but never seriously thought about converting. However, recently it's been more and more appealing and I think maybe this may be the extra push I need!

      I just got your book in my hot little hands a few weeks ago and LOVE it! We recently remodeled our kitchen and had a few friends over to celebrate and show it off- the Samosa Cakes were the perfect tapas to serve! Love your book!
