Well, I was supposed to also host a giveaway, thanks to her generous publisher. But I forgot! So we'll do that today.
If you'd like to read a review (and see pics of her Pasta e fagioli and her Blueberry Bundt Cake) of Happy Herbivore Abroad, check out my post from last Thursday. If you want to win a copy, all you have to do is leave a comment on this post letting me know your favorite international food. And by that, I mean, a dish from a country that you don't live in.
Despite the international theme here, the contest is only open to residents of the U.S. and Canada, per the publisher's rules.
I'll randomly select one winner on Sunday evening! Good luck!
Oh, and as always with these contests, if your comment isn't linked back to a blog with a way to contact you, please leave me your email address in the comment so I can contact you if you win.

I love this cookbook. The bundt cake is a Saturday staple at our house. My daughter has picked it as her reward for a good week. Although, to avoid the sticky mess of a two-year-old with glaze, I just put some lemon zest into the batter and leave it glazeless. So yum.
channa masala! naturally vegan & delicious!
I love Vietnamese pho.
I like Korean food - so I would have to say Korean "un"chicken.
ALOO GOBHI is my favorite comfort food...have never figured out how to make it as good as the Indian restaurants!
My favorite international dishes are a toss up between falafel, hummus, veggies and tahini sauce all rolled up into a warm pita with extra pickles AND vegetable pad thai with tofu and extra peanut sauce. I'm sure there are plenty more amazing recipes in this cookbook.
My current favourite is Injera dish from Eritrea/ Ethiopia (I have a US address. This makes me qualified, right? :) )
Gado gado from Indonesia.. simple, full of vegetables and easy to make.
Vegan Banh Mi with pickled daikon and jalapenos.
Pakoras are my favourite international food due to the range of vegetables that can go into them and the ease of making them.
It's hard to pick! Definitely something Indian, like channa masala.
A local Indian place carries a tofu-based matar paneer, that is done vegan. It's pretty much the best thing on the planet.
It's hard to choose, but I just woke up and would love something carby like pizza or pierogi !
There are a couple of local restaurants that make a vegan bahn mi and it is so so so good. Probably my favorite, but really how can one choose?
My favorite dish is definitely dahl from India!
Mine favorites would be spaetzle from Germany (still haven't figured out a vegan version!), and falafel sandwich made my a specific turkish seller in Germany. Clearly, I miss my Germany days :)
My favorite international food...has yet to be discovered! I am going to Egypt and Greece next week, so here's hoping! ;-) If I HAD to pick, I would go with something Indian.
My favorite food is a soup. And since becoming a vegan finding a replacement is hard. Tom Yum soup is a spicy tomatoe based soup with mushrooms, tomatoes, mung bean sprouts & thin bean noodles. The problem is there is shrimp & fiah sauce in the dish.
CURRY! Yellow thai curry.
I also love spring rolls of any sorts!
Pad thai..yum
My fave international food is falafel!
bubble and squeek
Definitely Ethiopian food over injera...YUM!
I love tofu banh mi sandwiches!!!
My favorite is Tom Yum soup. Hard to beat.
Mexican, mexican, mexican. In San Diego you gotta love Mexican food.
I love Indian food, and aloo matar is one of my favorite dishes.
is it cheating to just say "curry?" I know that's so broad/vague, but I seriously have never met a curry I didn't like :)
Well, lately I have been obsessing about burritos- I am not sure if they are really international, but that is my favorite.
My favorite international dish is Saag Paneer (veganized, of course!)
Do I have to pick just ONE favorite dish from another country? :( Well, I can't!
Let's start with lavash made over an open fire in the desert (just name your Middle Eastern country) and schmear some homemade hummus on it. Now add some cucumber, fresh tomatoes, pine nuts and whatever else you choose.
Or, how about a vegetarian/vegan Ethiopian platter? Yum!
Or the Indian smoky eggplant dish that has a name I can never remember.
I could go on, but I won't!
Very hard to pick just one dish-how about 3? Aloo gobi, falafel, pad khee mao....I could go on and on.
So tough to narrow it down! Most of my favorite foods are from countries that aren't my own. I definitely have a soft spot for Gomen Wot (Ethiopian collard greens). I love its slightly metallic taste and melt-in-your-mouth texture.
If I could only pick one and this is hard, I would chose Berbere Seitan stew with red wine and nice big salad. Yum!
What a wonderful giveaway! I love Mexican food.
Vegan stroganoff! I had the BEST in Berlin--yum!
it is a toss up between aloo gobi and falafel. i could stuff my face with both for days!!!
My fav international food is GRAPE LEAVES. Oh my gosh - I inhale them.
It's hard to pick just one - Chana masala, Falafel, Vietnamese Pho. Love THH -

So hard to pick!! I love vegan egg rolls and tai food and of course hummus :)
Vietnam veggie rolls...
I loooooove, love, love Saag! Have not mastered a recipe yet but I will. Oh yes, I WILL! ☺
Thanks!!

I <3 Chana Masala! :)
Vegetarian Pad Thai!!!! Yummm!!!!

One of my fave foods is from a local family run Chinese place that caters to vegans. It is General Tso's Tofu. Even my 12 year old loves the "spicy tofu" and has to make sure we get some every time we go.
I live for Vietnamese, so I'm going with rice noodle salad with tofu. The other ingredients can be interchangeable.
My current international fav food is saag aloo. I haven't been able to recreate the restaurant flavor at home though.

I have always been head over heels for Coconut-Curry dishes. The marriage of coconut milk and red curry paste is magical. Top it with fresh lime juice and I'm in heaven!
Thai Food! I love tofu yellow curry. I eat it like 3 times a week.
My favorite international food is from the Philippines, it's basically coconut milk, potatoes and a ton of vegetables over rice. Thanks for the great giveway! I love the Happy Herbivore.
This is tough! A really good bowl of Vietnamese pho or a well done red curry!
I love Malai Kofta from India! So yummy!
I love Channa Masala from India and Ratatouille from France!
tofu banh mi!! i'm addicted!
ah_adriana@yahoo.com
All things Thai- green curry tofu, and any and all other vegan thai dishes. The spicier the better!

Thai food! J.jamaisvu@gmail.com
Dal, masoor dal, sweet potato dal, dal, dal, dal (and many other vegetarian Indian dishes)
It's a tough call, but I think it might be falafel. And all of the delicious toppings that come with. meghanrose.oneill@gmail.com !
Dosas!
Falafel...specifically, Green Kitchen Stories' Baked Herb & Pistachio Falafel. I love that it's baked and pistachio'd and so very yumful. :)
im polish so obviously looove Sauerkraut and pierogies!!!my email is tsovinsk@indiana.edu
Veganized lasagna
Anything vegan from an Ethiopian restaurant!!
Mmmm, so many to choose from, I'd have to say jerk and since I'm relatively new at being a vegan, I think I'll try jerk tofu when I get home!!
c-chamm@start.ca
vegan sushi! Yum!!
Easily baigan bartha (or most indian food)

My favorite international food is one I grew up eating -- my Filipina grandmother's rice cake. Sticky rice, coconut milk and brown sugar baked in a banana leaf-lined pan. Delicious!
Udon noodles! They're so good. (My favorite is actually kachori, but I really have doubts as to whether or not anyone here has heard of it.)
vegan lasagna!
Ethiopian!! I want it in and around my mouth all day every day.
Anything Mexican. Donezo.
My favorite international food would have to be Pad Thai, with tofu and without eggs, of course.
I love tempeh from Indonesia. Just with anything I guess. They make it the best. Does that count as a dish? haha
Navrattan Korma from Kabob and Curry here in San Jose--just because it's the only place I've had it, so it's the only one I can vouch for. Is that international enough?
Dosa!!!
Pierogies! Sadly, I have yet to master the art of pierogi-making. :(
Count me as another vote for falafel and hummus! In a pita, with some diced cucumber and a dash of tahini sauce? Yumm!
Pad Thai! One of my all time favorites!
I really like a good coconut curry.
It would be a tie between pad thai and falafel. Delish!!
I love curry! I haven't sampled much vegan international food in the 8 months that I've been vegan I've mostly cooked in my kitchen following recipes.
My favorite international dish is Pad Thai, hands down! I have always loved noodles and when they are combined with peanuts, sweet tamarind, pungent green onions, and spicy chilis...well, I simply swoon!
falafel!
Lasagna, or pretty much anything else Italian!
I absolutely love Thai yellow curry with tofu....mmmmm, my mouth is watering just thinking about it!
I looooove pad thai :)
I just read another review for this cookbook and I would absolutely love to own it!! My new favorite international dish is one that I just discovered- the burmese tea leaf salad. Oh my goodness! The fermented tea leaves are like something i've never tasted and you get all of the different textures from the different nuts, garlic, seeds. Its pretty much unreal!
We're really into Thai-style curries at my house. Mmm ...
peanut sauce on absolutely ANYTHING:)
Japanese Tofu and Sesame Noodle Salad :)

I love Japanese food, avacado rolls are sooo yummy!
Vegan Pad See Ew is my absolute FAVORITE. I plan on having some in Thailand late this year!! So excited!
Chana masala, but really I love all indian food.
vegan bahn mi :)
Mont Blanc. The French chestnut dessert I first tried in Japan. Best.
I am in love with the Ethiopian spicy lentil dish - I think it's traditionally called Wat
