Today, I have two books to share with you. One is strictly vegan
and the other is vegetarian. Both, however, are beautiful and
filled with recipes that vegetarians and carnivores alike will
love. I am neither a vegan or a vegetarian but I find myself
leaning toward more vegetarian options lately. When I worked in
Manhattan, one of my favorite lunches was a veggie burger on whole
grain from a restaurant three avenues over. I still dream about
that burger - it had more texture and flavor than any beef burger
I've ever had. I often turn to vegan/vegetarian cookbooks to
experiment with new ways to bring healthful options to our menus
and the following two titles - Vegan 100: Over 100 Incredible Recipes from
Avant-Garde Vegan and Green Burgers: Creative Vegetarian Recipes for
Burgers and Sides - are packed with inspiration in
folds.

Gaz Oakley's story is an interesting one. He left high
school at age 15 and set out to make his own way in the food world.
His exuberance for food got him behind the doors of a French
restaurant where he worked more hours a day than most chefs twice
his age. After a few stints in cooking and sales work, he found his
home at Avant-Garde Vegan, his website and You Tube
channel.
Gaz' debut cookbook Vegan 100: Over 100 Incredible Recipes from
Avant-Garde Vegan shares flavour forward dishes that are
sure to please anyone. What strikes me is the vibrancy of the
recipes. Gorgeous plates of greens, red tomatoes adoring dishes,
and even a bowl of purple soup pops off the pages. The author
proves that plant-based food doesn't have to be boring with recipes
that cover breakfast to sweets and everything in between.
This September, the author has Vegan Christmas scheduled for release
which promises to make your holiday menu planning even more
exciting and varied.

Green Burgers: Creative Vegetarian Recipes for
Burgers and Sides by Martin Nordin shares recipes such as
a classic BBQ portobello burger to a Zucchini burger with wild
garlic. With chapters on burgers, buns, sides, pickles, and
sauces, this title has all you need to make the perfect plant-based
burgers and sides at home.
Nordin's passion for perfecting the art of the ultimate veggie
burgers has garnered him a loyal following on Instagram as The
Cabbage Butcher. That determination is reflected within the
pages of this book. Recipes range from a Deep-fried mushroom and
quinoa burger with purple sauerkraut and garlic mayonnaise to a
Black bean burger with cheddar and caramelised onions. I think my
dream veggie burger is waiting for me and I'm going to have loads
of fun finding it. With the flavors and textures shared here, no
one can dare ask 'where's the beef?'
