Vegan 100: Over 100 incredible recipes from @avantgardevegan

Was handed a notice by my cardiologist to stop eating meat. I have/ had severe angina and a suspected heart attack. So a few months later, I am trying to re-learn how to cook and eat healthy. It’s been a very interesting journey. Reluctant and a very dubious husband. Recently visited Sydney for my son’s wedding after starting the journey to go meat free. Bored and long nights turned me to instagram and videos to help find more recipes. This is how I came across this amazing chef!Ordered this book as soon as we landed. What a fantastic book to help with every day life and the transitioning! Thank you so much! It’s an absolute game changer as it teaches you to do “scrambled eggs”, sausages and bacon. To us this is excellent news. The book is full of exciting new recipes to replace our bad habits. For anyone anti vegan… we feel so much better for changing and at the age of 53 there is absolutely no chance of us going back. Chest pain completely gone. So we are looking forward to a new journey with the help of this amazing book. Gaz, this book is incredible! Thank you so much for your detailed explanation of every single recipe. All looks and tastes yummy! Every day food for Norman people. Got lots of vegan cookbooks. This one is the star of the show!

This is the best cooking book I've ever seen. The book itself is wonderful, it is so colourful and the presentation of the recipes is amazing. But most importantly, the recipes are delicious. One thing that I have to get out of the way first -- if you want recipes with 5 ingredients that take 15 minutes to make, this is not the book for you. This book is for people who have been cooking for a while, have developed skills for cooking and have more than 30 minutes to spare for cooking OR for people who want to take their cooking to the next level. If that is you, I don't doubt that this will be the perfect cooking book for you.I've been following Gaz on Youtube almost since the beginning of his channel and made a lot of his recipes at home and they were always delicious. I've already tried a couple of new recipes from the book and they were just as I suspected - delicious. This book contains a lot of "different" recipes that are hard to find elsewhere, like making your own vegan sausages, burgers and burger buns. Also, contains recipes for cooking essentials, like vegetable broth, BBQ sauce and cream. I will be cooking all of them, learning them by heart and then inviting friends for a dinner which will blow their minds.

Big fan of Gaz's I think he has very original ideas and I use his Christmas book every Christmas! This book has some good recipies in it.

I was interested to see what this book contained. The recipes are very impressive and if I was presented with any of the dishes in a restaurant I would gladly try it. Sadly creating gastronomic master pieces isn't high on my priority list at home. I prefer simple, quick recipes, bursting with flavour.I'm sure there's plenty of cooks that enjoy this book.

Follow Gaz on youtube as i am really trying to cut out the meat and seek an alternative healthy lifestyle.I used to eat everything from fry ups at the cafe to mcdonalds,takeaways a bit of fine dining etc... , Gaz wasnt the one who made me rethink my unhealthy lifestyle - that was ' john joseph ' - check him out on youtube or via his book - this guy is a truly insperational human being , very to the point... Anyway , back to mr oakley. I am not one of these people jumping on the band wagon of Veganism, i just want to do my bit for the planet and cut eating flesh out of my diet completely and vegan100 is helping me do this. There are Some easy and alternative dishes from the book i am now Incorperating in place of meat in my diet now, like gaz's currys, burgers, pasta dishes and some great breakfast ideas in here aswell. Even if your not vegan, this book has some truly stunning dishes to add to your arsenal when cooking for yourself and friends or family. This is a wicked cook book and i will definately buy his new book soon aswell.

Great cookbook. Tasty recipes! Not simply great for a vegan cookbook, but just a great cookbook overall! Well written and easily followed but very tasty recipes. Even my meat eating friends and family have enjoyed these tasty recipes and did not miss the meat! You do not need to be vegan to enjoy the food in this cookbook! If you are looking at the possibility of going vegan, just fancy having a few meat free meals, or a family member has gone vegan and you have no idea what to cook for them, or you simply enjoy good food that is healthy yet flavourful...then this is the place to start! Everything is explained simply and the end results are always delicious.

The best vegan cookbook ever. No brown food just page after page of deliciousness. The recipes work so you won't be disappointed! There are various chapters including one of staple foods such as butter, milk, cheeses and ketchup. I found this so useful. Delicious snacks, mains, cheesecakes and so much more, this book will have something for everyone. Gaz Oakley is a genius! I've been vegan for decades and never have I found such amazing food that is easy to make at home!

I was really excited to get this cookbook but unfortunately see myself hardly using it.10 out of 10 for presentation, and for "veganising" classic meat and dairy dishes. 0 out of 10 for practicality.This is NOT an every day cookbook. The ingredients are bizarre and wont be stocked in your cupboard - as fully fledged vegan I have some strange ingredients in my cupboard these days, but even I don't have half of the things in this book. Dishes in here take hours to prepare, you'll likely be cooking most of the day for most of these, and its one of those annoying cookbooks that constantly refers to some crucial "ingredient" on a different page, which is actually another full-length recipe in itself.The final result tastes pretty good - but not phenomenal - which is a shame after putting in so much effort. The recipes in this book would be great to show off at a dinner party, to spend a night in cooking a nice meal with/for someone, or to "Wow" a meat eater into seeing how great vegan food can look can look and taste - special occasion cooking only. But its VERY impractical for day to day life and if you're just getting into veganism, to be quite honest, this book will probably put you off altogether. There are many better, simpler, healthier and better tasting books out there.

Like many of those who have bought this book, I am a big fan of Gaz Oakley's Avant Garde Vegan blog and YouTube channel, avantgardevegan. This book is gorgeous and takes it another step forward. His recipes are vibrant and full of flavor and can make anyone love a plate of vegetables. Vegan 100 is thick and loaded with full-page photographs that will make your mouth water. If you are familiar with his vegan creations, you will not be disappointed.Not vegan? Serve your fleshy bits on the side on the side if you must, but you'll never miss them with these recipes. Oakley's approach to vegetables seems different than most other chefs and it shows in this cookbook. So much flavor! And the dishes are really beautiful to look at, so they will entice even the most ardent of veggie-haters. There are a few things to be aware of when you use this cookbook, but it's otherwise a perfect intro to veg newbies, the perfect accompaniment to any non-veg food, or a breath of fresh air to old school vegans.Oakley is an English chef, so you may see some references that may seem unfamiliar. The 'look inside' feature above shows how the text is laid out in the UK version, it hasn't been converted any further. Aubergines are eggplants, courgettes are zucchini, and yes, they really do eat baked beans for breakfast on the other side of the pond. However, you will be in familiar territory once you figure this out. None of the recipe call for hard to find ingredients.Most of the recipes are created completely from scratch. They may use a lot of ingredients, but that's how you build flavor. A long list doesn't mean difficult, most of the recipes are easy to put together without special techniques or equipment. You don't have to make your Ultimate Breakfast seitan sausages from scratch, but Oakley will teach you how if you are more adventurous. Otherwise, pick up a package of Field Roast sausages and continue with the recipe.I have made several recipes in this cookbook because Oakley dripped a few in advance via his blog and videos. A few more are in the "look inside" feature on Amazon. I've had good luck with everything so far and I've marked many more pages with recipes I intend to make.I LOVE the eggplant bacon, and I'm not the only one. Mom has Alzheimer's and she craves bolder flavors as she loses her ability to taste the same way. I've made the bacon for her a few times. Nothing we have tried has been bland, so we are both happy.I made the Sriracha Meatballs and my three teenage granddaughters went nuts over them! I didn't tell them they contained smashed tofu until they finished eating. They assumed it was some kind of cheese. They agreed to try more tofu dishes in the future since it didn't kill them.I made Paprika Baked Beans that calls for canned haricot beans. I've never seen beans called haricot here, but a little research found them to be white navy beans. Easy to find. I used Muir Glen fire roasted chopped tomatoes instead of plain, along with the other ingredients of shallots, garlic, smoked paprika, and a few other tasty bits. It was easy to make and was so good!! I didn't serve it for breakfast, but it would be tempting to start the day out with so much flavor. The beans have a fresher flavor than the baked beans most of us are used to.I could really go on about this cookbook, but this is a review and not a book. I've made quite a few of his recipes that are not in this book as well, always with good luck. I preordered this book last July as soon as I heard about it, and it's everything I hoped it would be. I hope there will be another one!

Gaz is the real deal. Not only is he charming and his YouTube channel visually impressive, his recipes deliver! I've got amazing results every single time, so he remains one of a very few chefs who's recipes I follow to a tee.I have been looking forward to get his first book and it didn't disappoint: I got it yesterday on pre-order and have so far tried 3 recipes (Paprika-Sage Hummus, Falafel & Tahini Dressing, Homemade Ketchup) all full of flavor and relatively easy to prepare, with straightforward instructions and gorgeous pictures.Definitely a keeper!

Ce livre de recette est excellent. L’auteur va droit au but et explique son processus de manière simple et concise. Les photos sont sublimes.Les recettes sont bien pensées et apportent beaucoup de bonheur et de fun aux plats vegans .Tous ceux qui comptent abandonner la viande ou qui pensent simplement que de la restriction nait la créativité devraient jeter un oeil à cet ouvrage.

amazing

No he hecho todas las recetas obviamente, pero las que he probado han estado muy buenas.
