Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Orange and chipotle-kissed butternut squash bisque

    • Shelmar on October 28, 2021

      Very good, and with an immersion blender, not as daunting

  • Tomato and white bean salad with watercress

    • H_Leblanc123 on January 06, 2023

      Replaced watercress with arugula

  • Asian noodle salad with spicy peanut sauce

    • CheriRD on October 12, 2011

      I really liked the dressing, though I used half the amount of chili paste. The dressing is a little thin, might use a little less water next time. I don't like the udon noodles and would use a different kind next time.

  • Vermicelli, chickpeas, and vegetables with creamy curry sauce

    • Nancith on July 11, 2018

      This was a decent Indian-flavored pasta dish. Recipe says 4 servings, but it's more like 6. I used a combination of garam masala & a spicy curry powder, which actually made it little more tongue-tingling than I care for, altho son & hubby did not detect much heat. Nice coconut milk sauce & veggie assortment, but could use more textural difference. I didn't have peanuts, which would have added some crunch (admittedly, that didn't sound appealing to me). The omnivores suggested that shrimp might be a nice addition. Pretty speedy to put together.

  • Curried lentils with carrots and peas

    • Shelmar on November 22, 2019

      Easy weeknight meal.

  • Artichoke and root vegetable gratin

    • Nancith on November 07, 2016

      Very nice gratin, with a crunchy breadcrumb topping! Would make a nice dish for company or the holidays. Would also taste good w/ some Parmesan or Gruyere thrown in. I subbed an onion for the leek, water for broth, & threw in 2 small golden beets. Went well with a pork roast for the omnivores in the family.

  • Black bean and sweet potato enchiladas

    • Magpie365 on July 24, 2012

      Great, simple recipe. Top with lettuce, tomato, red onion.

    • Jenmeister on June 23, 2022

      Have made this sauce quite a lot over the years, always well received. I usually put it in puff pastry. Sometimes I use butter chicken spice blend instead of chili.

  • In-a-jiffy chili-couscous pie

    • swegener on June 27, 2015

      This was both quick and delicious. I did add the onion and peppers to the couscous as well as saving some to sprinkle on top. Yum!

Publishers Text

Vegan Planet introduces a world of delicious choices to the millions of Americans who are vegans, vegetarians looking to move away from dairy and eggs, or non-vegetarians who have food sensitivities (more than 30 million Americans are lactose intolerant) or are simply trying to eat healthier.


The vegan diet consists solely of plant-based ingredients. A vegan diet contains no eggs, dairy, or other animal products, including honey, but is chock full of delicious, nutritious, and satisfying whole grains, vegetables, fruits, and proteins from plant sources.


In Vegan Planet, Robin Robertson shows how to make vegan cuisine exciting, flavorful, and full of variety. First she provides a complete rundown on the vegan pantry and the tremendous health benefits of this way of eating. Then she presents 400 tantalizing new recipes for breakfast (Pumpkin Pie Pancakes), lunch (Fried Green Tomato Po-Boys), and dinner (Hot Tamale Vegetable Pie). There are decadent-without-dairy desserts (Brandy-Apple Pie) and creative ideas for entertaining guests (Ginger-Scented pot Stickers, Curried Cauliflower Pakoras).


Taking advantage of the many cuisines around the world with large repertoires of naturally vegan recipes. Vegan Planet is truly global in its culinary offerings.
