Review ------ Vegan cooking that even a carnivore would love? That's the premise behind Candice Hutchings' book, a spinoff of (her) popular blog and YouTube series. With 138 recipes, from buffalo cauliflower wings to matcha ice cream, cheese fondue to a meatless chicken sandwich inspired by Chick-Fil-A, this book demonstrates the possibilities of a vegan diet.-- (09/17/2017) Hutchings, host of the YouTube channel The Edgy Veg, shares her carnivore-friendly approach to eating vegan in this charming and instructive cookbook. Rather than focusing on complicated recipes, Hutchings takes simple approaches to creating vegan versions of classic meat-based dishes, including French onion soup, biscuits and gravy, spaghetti and meatballs, fried chicken, and fish and chips. There are also vegan takes on the Taco Bell Crunch Wrap Supreme, the Chick-Fil-A sandwich, and the Big Mac. Hutchings's recipes are as pared-down as possible, and most ingredients are easily sourced...This light-hearted and encouraging cookbook is a welcome surprise.-- (11/22/2017) You're following a recipe online, and you need to scroll or the screen goes black. Your hands are covered in flour, the pot is boiling too quickly, and there's no time to wash your hands. Ah!!! Thankfully, YouTube recipe curator Candice Hutchings (aka, The Edgy Veg) released her first cookbook so you don't have to worry about messing up your computer keys. Known for veganizing animal-based comfort foods such as Crunchy Taco Wrap Supreme, Drunken Fish and Chips, and Sriracha Waffles, Hutchings' recipes require some preparation time and a solid list of ingredients, but (as we've discovered) the wait is worth the work.-- (12/17/2017) About the Author ---------------- Candice Hutchings and James Aita are the creators of The Edgy Veg - a YouTube phenomenon. They also run a hugely successful branding company that includes recipe development, custom product integration, social media support and brand ambassadorship.
