Vegan Comfort Foods Cookbook Giveaway!!

A couple nights ago, I posted a review of Veronica Grace's new cookbook, Vegan Comfort Foods from Around the World. It's a collection of 60 low-fat recipes for classic comfort food dishes. We're talking vegan mac & cheese with broccoli, ranch dip, spaghetti with French lentil sauce, sloppy joes, baked ziti, you name it. If it's comforting, there's likely a recipe for it in Veronica's new book.


Well, I was supposed to host a giveaway of her book in that post. But I blog late at night, and I forget important things all the time. So I forgot to post about the giveaway! Here it is.

You can read the full review here. And then you should leave a comment on this post letting me know about your favorite vegan comfort food. What one meal just warms the heck out of your little heart with every bite?

Be sure and leave your email address in the comment unless you know I can find you through a blog or something. I just need a way to contact you. I'll randomly select a winner on Tuesday night.

(P.S. I've noticed that a few people have left comments on the review post linked above to try to win rather than this one. Sorry for the confusion! But please comments on THIS POST! To be fair, I'll include those folks who commented on the other as well. But it'll be easier on me if you comment here instead of there).

    Can I pick a vegan food I haven't had yet? The other day I realized I'd love to recreate vegan port wine cheese and first I thought I'd add port wine to hummus because I figured I was the only person missing this but mr google found me two recipes which NEED to be made! One is but based the other tofu... So I'm picking those as my favorite vegan comfort food

    My favourite comfort food is adapted from the Chick Magnet Chikn Casserole from the Peta College Cookbook (Layers of tomato pasta sauce, creamy cheesey sauce, fake bacon rasher crisps & vegan cheese)

    My favorite comfort food is pot pie. I usually make mine with a Gardein product or seitan and lots of veggies in a creamy (vegan) white sauce. Pour into a round casserole and top with a pie crust or puff pastry. Hmmmmm making me hungry.

    Oh man...I just made an awesome variation of pad Thai...using spaghetti squash! It was full of vegetables, sweet and tangy sauce and spongy tofu. Of course, it had a plop of chewy rice on the side. Total veggie comfort.

    I love funeral potatoes! I know everyone calls them something different. But I make a vegan version of the classic favorite. Potatoes, sour cream, cream cheese, cheese, butter, onions, corn flakes, all baked together! Super unhealthy, but delicious and comforting!

    When I describe my favorite comfort food, people often say "wow, you really are a Northern Californian, aren't you?": beans & greens. Black beans with garlic and smoked paprika, topped with braised kale made with a ludicrous quantity of garlic and lots of lemon juice.

    Hey Bianca! My favorite vegan comfort food at this moment is either my red-hot, protein-packed chili, or a homemade vegan poutine, with little guilt! The latter is a project in the kitchen, so I only make it from time to time (when friends are in the kitchen with me, heh).

    Honestly, though, I aspire to make a mouth-watering vegan gumbo (and jambalaya, for that matter) quite soon. Spicy ftw!

    Was going to say Cheezy mashed potatoes (with daiya) but I'm reading through all the comments thinking I frickin' LOVE (insert comfort food idea here). I'm going to stick with my original answer though because it's easy to make and really filling and when I'm feeling yucky, it just makes me feel better!
