Has anyone tried any recipes from the Virgin Vegan cookbook by Linda Long?

I made the granola. I was intrigued because it is a stovetop method, and it used lots of healthy ingredients - blackstrap molasses, wheat germ, etc. It tastes like a healthy granola but worked much better when combined with a sweet fruit.

No, but now I want banana milk. Also, the author has the same name as one of my aunts! I wonder if Aunt Linda has been secretly writing vegan cookbooks in her spare time? She is pretty awesome already, so I guess it's a possibility.

i sadly haven't heard of this book but the preview on amazon is pretty generous. if i didn't already have 'vegan for life' i would probably get this book. i think the "snacks! yay!" chapter is such a cute name :)

there's so much vegan stuff being published it's hard to keep up.....

I have both - the first is better. The second one has a few cooking errors. The recipes are not to complicated and I was curious....

I know! Every time I search through The Book Depository I find something new. My wishlist is now several pages long!

I may hold off on purchasing Virgin Vegan for the time being but I'll keep my eye on this thread in case there are any rave reviews.

i think some of the recipes if not most (in the second book) look like stuff the redid from other recipes/sites.
