The Maui Vegetarian Cooking with Aloha by Brian Igarta
I had the extreme pleasure of meeting Chef Brian Igarta at the Health and Healing Crusade. I was blown away by his talent in the kitchen though he was very humble- never wanting to step on my toes- as I was the head Chef for the crusade. He was always helpful when needed. He is my culinary hero! We had a potato fiasco about an hour or so before we were to serve dinner. Most of the potatoes didn’t cook in time, so we boiled some- and they were over cooked (ready for mashing- but we hadn’t intended on serving mashed potatoes) and the rest just tasted blah! Brian came in with his wife Crystal and worked his magic. The overcooked potatoes were turned into a mashed potato casserole and the others were roasted again with olive oil, garlic and italian seasonings. They were crispy and delicious.. They were the hit of the conference! Everyone was asking for the recipe. Thanks Brian.. (more…)

Easy Gourmet for Gluten-Free Vegans by Crystal DuBoyce
I am so excited to share this book with you. I love reviewing cookbooks. It is even more rewarding when I get to meet the authors of the books I am reviewing, which is usually through the internet. To chat with the author about their book, their passions, the things that they get excited about in the vegan lifestyle- or to learn a new trick in the kitchen.. I am such a kitchen geek! For the first time ever I have gotten the opportunity to meet an author in person. (more…)

This book Vegan on the Cheap by Robin Robertson and published by Wiley dispells that myth. Each recipe cost .50 to $2.00 per serving! (more…)
