Celebrate Vegan: 200 Life-Affirming Recipes for Occasions Big and Small

Celebrate Vegan uses mainly pantry staples, although a few recipes call for more exotic ingredients. Seasoned chefs and cooking novices alike will find the chatty recipes easy to follow. Most recipes are simple, while more elaborate holiday treats invite readers to explore new techniques. Sidebars bring to light unfamiliar holidays, as well as interesting facts and cooking tips. This book covers the spectrum of holidays from across the globe—public, religious, and even quirky, lesser-known holidays. Celebrate Vegan also includes recipes for important milestones such as birthdays, weddings and anniversaries, as well as menus for everyday celebrations like “Girls’ Night In,” “Snow Day,” “Tailgate Party,” and “Slumber Party.”  Dynise Balcavage is the author of Celebrate Vegan: 200 Life-Affirming Recipes for Occasions Big and Small, and The Urban Vegan: 250 Simple, Sumptuous Recipes, from Street-Cart Favorites to Haute Cuisine and eleven books for young readers.
