Steph I saw that you were coming to the Mazamas to speak in Portland Oregon so I decided to check out your site. The first thing that popped up was your vegan vid and making dinner. I have always wanted to reduce meat product intake however being a prior bodybuilder I thought it was quite impossible. Do you have a recommendation on a starter cook book for vegan cuisine? I would so appreciate it! When you mentioned your performance increased I was like YEAH! But I also am looking for healthier options for eating and this sounds like a good start.
Thanks,
Dian
Hi Dian, yes I am coming to Portland next Thursday! I have “From a Traditional Greek Kitchen, Vegetarian Cuisine” by Aphrodite Polemis, and it is great, so I highly recommend it. My favorite Spinach Triangles recipe came from this book–it’s not advertised as a vegan cookbook, but most of the recipes are, or offer ways to substitute tofu for cheese.

Any cookbook from Post Punk Kitchen is also really good. It’s definatly a good ( and tasty) intro to vegan eating/lifestyle. She also has a great blog where she posts new recipes regularly.
