Vegan Comfort Cooking: 75 Plant-Based Recipes to Satisfy Cravings and Warm Your Soul

Every recipe is very easy to follow, easy to make and turns out delish!! I've made each recipe MORE than once, it's that good! I can't wait to try more of her recipes. Added bonus, each recipe has a beautiful photo & funny anecdotes! Quality of the paper its printed on is excellent making it a book that will last all the spills I make on it! Thank you for creating my fav cookbook Mel! You've made my partner & I very happy vegans with your comforting, delish recipes.

Good recipes and great illustrations. I am very happy with this purchase.

I have many vegan cookbooks and will often do a search to try and find a special recipe that I may have made in the past or if I have the ingredients to make a dish and need to find a recipe. Mel's book is the first one I have actually sat down with and started cooking as many of the recipes as I can because they look easy to make and sound delicious. There are various recipes for different types of comfort foods. Some of my favorites so far are the Enchilada casserole, the Mac 'nC Cheese and best of all - the cheesecake (I have already made 3 with great reviews from non-vegans!). Get the book! You will find many recipes that I believe will become your favorite 'go to' recipes to please any vegan or non-vegan.

I like everything I’ve made in it so far. It’s really terrific.

I bought this cookbook because I fell in love with Mel's website, a virtual vegan, and got sick of writing every recipe down. I love it! I have been vegan for years, with a focus on WFPB the last couple of months and was dying for comfort food. This book fits the bill nicely. It covers meals, snacks, desserts and staples, like vegan butter. She lays everything out to easily find any recipe you're in the mood for. She thoroughly explains substitutions for ingredients and even explains why an ingredient shouldn't be substituted for the integrity of the recipe. She has no-oil options, no-nut options and even gluten free options. That being said, it is still a comfort food cookbook. This is not a book full of salads. It is full of luscious, belly filling, soul feeding vegan food. Just buy it!

If you are looking for recipes that are delicious, decadent and wholly comforting, this book is for you. While you can modify some recipes to be more fat conscious, it kinda defeats the purpose (at least for me). I use cook books as a starting point and rarely follow them literally. Mel is pretty serious about proportions and measuring and steps. But I still get most of the dishes to taste well and look close to the picture. I have a lot of cook books and hers is the first one that gave me a basic bread recipe that I can get to work every single time. So the book has basic stuff you can use as well as comfort food for night in and glamorous desserts to wow your guests at a special dinner. A good find for anyone looking for inspiration.

This is a great cookbook at a low price. I sub some ingredients, and the recipes still work. The chocolate chip cookie recipe is my favorite...and I have made the cookies 2 or 3 times. I have used about 6 of the recipes so far and all of them have turned out delicious. I like that there are photos on every other page. Though, make sure to watch out for recipes that continue onto the next page....behind the photo page....you might think you are almost done with a recipe...then, you turn the page and see the rest of it. I like having so many more vegan options to eat...especially for breakfast. I plan to make many, many more recipes from the book (very excited to make the "queso") and hope another recipe book is in the works!

I love this book so much. Having followed A Virtual Vegan for a while I suspected I would but honestly never anticipated it becoming such a staple. The Shepherdless pie is a huge favorite but the sweet and smoky glazed meatloaf has also made its way into our regular recipes. Sticky sweet and sour tofu was delicious and ... oh, do yourself a favor and get the book. It’s also a beautiful cookbook for having on the shelf - recipes are what count obviously but I do like a book to be pleasing to the eye also. There are also a ton of helpful hints in the recipes. I loved it so much it became my go to Christmas gift last year and everyone loves it.

I love this book, it is our go to vegan cook book. It’s easy to follow and the recipes are fabulous

I was lucky and got a great deal on her book so I ought one for a vegan friend also. Mels recipes are tested and tested prior to putting them out to the public as a result you are guaranteed an excellent meal. She writes concisely and puts things in sensible order for following recipes. Most of my meals have been courtesy of Mel's recipes and I'm pleased I coukd support her by buying her book.

best vegan cook book I have ever brought ,great easy ,delicious recipes and idea's I use this book more than any of my other recipe books

I have 50 vegan cookbooks. This is quickly becoming my favourite. It's not just pretty pictures - the recipes taste great. They're easy to make with "regular" ingredients. No weird stuff you have to search for that you'll never use again . Love this book! Highly recommend. Truly healthy vegan comfort food

I love this book so much I just bought one for my son! Recipes are super tasty, not complicated and you don’t have to go hunting in the stores for some uncommon ingredients that’s hard to find. Also the author is very generous with her recipes and there are loads of excellent ones on ger website avirtualvegan
