Book Description

July 1, 2011

Hearty Vegan Meals for Monster Appetites is a feast of indulgent, decadent goodness. If you're looking for a salad recipe for your health-nut friends, this isn't the book for you. But if you're looking for the vegan answer to everything your meat-eating mouth has ever wanted, you've come to the right place.”–Rory Freedman, author of the New York Times bestseller Skinny Bitch and more

“Feast your eyes on these gorgeous dishes, and then feast your tummy. Joni and Celine never disappoint!” –Isa Chandra Moskowitz, author of Veganomicon, Vegan with a Vengeance, Vegan Cupcakes Take Over the World, and more

“This book belongs on every bookshelf!”–Colleen Patrick-Goudreau, author of The Joy of Vegan Baking, The Vegan Table, Color Me Vegan, and The 30-Day Vegan Challenge

Calling All Insatiable Appetites!

To anyone who’s ever thought “a meal without meat is a terrible thing to eat,” we’ve got news for you: You’re about to sink your teeth into some of the best food you’ve ever eaten. Food that happens to be vegan but is so full of hearty flavor and taste that even your non-vegan guests—and family members—will be left wondering if they just ate a meatless meal or a Thanksgiving feast.

Inside, you’ll be treated to a vast collection of more than 200 “secret weapon” recipes from authors Celine Steen and Joni Marie Newman, two plant-based pros who know what it takes to wow the socks off of anyone with straight-up great food. From Banana Split Waffles to Ultimate Patty Melts, they’ll show you (and your meat-loving guests) that eating vegan doesn’t mean sacrificing flavor, but rather enhancing it using the natural flavors found in fruits, vegetables, grains, spices, herbs, and more.

Recipes include:

- Baked Cinnamon Sugar Donut Holes

- Hearty Breakfast Bowl

- Chocolate Stout Chili

- Sweet Potato Po' Boys

- Five-Cheese Baked Macaroni and Cheese

- Crispy Burritos con Carne

- Garlic Truffle Fries

- Sun Dried Tomato, Garlic, and Basil Flatbread

- Strawberry Cream Pretzel Pie

- White Chocolate Almond Bars

- Peanut Butter Rocky Road Pound Cakes

Whether you’re looking to impress or indulge—or both!—Hearty Vegan Meals for Monster Appetites is your ultimate source for mean and mouthwatering eats at every meal.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is a must have! July 18, 2011
Format:Paperback
I have tried many things from this cookbook and everything has been exceptional. It is a great collection of recipes that will appeal to anyone and is a great go-to for when you are entertaining a mixed crowd but want to keep it vegan. My husband who used to be a big meat eater but is now vegan loves when I cook from this cookbook because it matches the flavor profiles he is used to and always says "it's vegan magic" because it all tastes the same but without the animal products. Highlights for us have been the Buttermilk Blueberry pancakes, the Twice Baked Spaghetti, maple bacon donuts, the taco salad, cheese tortellini, cake batter ice cream, smokey pub cheese and the burger you make with it, seriously....all of it! I love the design of the book and the photography is amazing! There are lots of pictures to show you exactly what you are going to get and just looking through it you will be drooling and planning your menu for the week. Celine and Joni have definitely done it again, this is a definite must have!

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing! July 9, 2011
By Moucky
Format:Paperback
Hearty Vegan is a delight for the palate and for the eyes.
This book makes it a pleasure to eat vegan, to enjoy every meal, and to find the perfect menu to prepare for yourself or to entertain your friends.
Together with my husband, we enjoyed the Scalloped Potato Pie, the Eggplant Parmigiana, the Pesto con Gusto Pizza. To entertain, we served the Crispy Pepperoni Bites with rosé wine: they went together so well. The Super-Tender Whole Wheat Bagels, slightly toasted and served with jam, make for a great breakfast. We also loved June's Swedish Dessert Blender Pancakes.
We're looking forward to trying even more from this book!

3.0 out of 5 stars Okay but not my style... January 1, 2012
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I am sure there are a lot of people that would enjoy this cookbook. It would be great to use as a resource when the carnivores come knocking for dinner, but.... It is just too unhealthy for me. So many of the recipes are fried, use TVP, lots of faux cheeses, butter etc.. I don't mind some junk vegan food now and again but, this is not a nightly go to cookbook for dinner. I did try a couple of things (making some changes to how it was prepared so as to not use as much oil etc) and the flavor was decent. If you like junk food or need to cook for a carnivore then this book may work for you... as for me I enjoy the health aspect of being a vegan and felt that this cookbook would not benefit me.

5.0 out of 5 stars Yes, vegan food can be comfort food! January 14, 2012
Format:Paperback
At the risk of sounding redundant, previous reviewers have used words like indulgent, decadent and gorgeous... And they would be correct.
But this is also a down-home, "Mom's Kitchen" sort of book you'll be referring to over and over.

I author a "comfort vegan food" blog [...] because that is what my family and I LIKE! I admit I'm picky - and not a fan of green smoothies or chia pudding. Thus I'm often skeptical of other vegan cooking because it seems complicated, filled with ingredients I can't locate or recipes designed for palates different than mine.
However, not so with this lovely book - I'm pleased to report that every one of the recipes I've tried in this book, so far, would qualify, absolutely, as vegan "comfort" food. Warm, hearty, cozy filling foods you would serve to your family on a cold winter night.

Enjoy!!

5.0 out of 5 stars ORDER THIS NOW!!! September 1, 2011
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I'm a cookbook ADDICT. I must have 200 veg*n cookbooks right now and THIS one is my favorite! EVERYTHING I've made has been just to die for. I've been vegetarian for over 30 years. Vegan for about a month now. My husband eats fish, but is vegetarian otherwise. He is hesitant to be "more vegetarian" than he is(n't) now. BUT, with this cookbook- he's been eating vegan and loving it! Last night: the alfredo sauce over whole wheat linguini. Tonight the "beefy" mac followed by the STRAWBERRY CREAM PRETZEL PIE (OMG-seriously!!!!!!!!!). These two chefs are amazing.I'm their new biggest fan for sure. :)

5.0 out of 5 stars Full of yummy goodness!! December 11, 2011
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
First of all, I must be clear, this book is NOT a healthy vegan cookbook by any means. What it is however, is a delicious vegan cookbook to satisfy any vegan (or hungry eater in your home)! As with many cookbooks, I had to buy this one just for the name alone, and it did not disappoint. Even my non-vegan family was amazingly satisfied with these meals and asked for more! Prepare to be filled up with such delights as,

Tofuevos Rancheros
Lentil and Bacon Pot O'Stew
The Double Take
Tempehitan Burgers
Ultimate Patty Melt
Barbeque Ribs
Creamy All-In One Bowl
Hearty Breakfast Bowl
Irish Nachos

What's that you say? Looking for dessert or something to satisfy that sweet tooth? look no further, you will be happily delighted once again with desserts/vegan goodies like:

Old-Fashioned Coconut Cake
Vanilla Pudding Cupcakes
Salty Sweet Oat Cookies
Chocolate Pecan Muffins
Apple Pie With Pecan Crust
Sugar Rush Cereal Bars (made with Dandies and Cap'n Crunch Cereal)

and our family favorite: Maple Bacon Doughnuts! OMG!!! Talk about vegan food heaven! I have a ton of vegan cookbooks and the title of this book indicates exactly what to expect and doesn't disappoint. Rest assured those of you who are still not sure whether to buy this or not; do your self a favor and buy it! You will not be disappointed. The authors do say on a variety of "less than healthy" recipes to serve with a green vegetable (my guess is because you won't feel as guilty when you eat the dish). Overall, this is a great book for that occasional vegan meal when you just want to eat some good ole comfort food!
